Ok the problem I'm having it my stock gauge lights (heat knobs, needles and illuminated lights) have stopped working. Also my rear tail lights. My brake lights work just not the tail lights.
I have checked:
All the connectors of the tail lights nothing is loose
The 10amp "TAIL" fuse was not blown (also switched it out with two other known good fuses still no worky)
None of my wires for the radio have been spliced into (car has never had aftermarket radio)
All aftermarket gauges are ran off my turbo timer's ACC wire (turbo timer is installed by harness) And they work fine
My next actions will be to find mine or buy a test light to use to see if i'm getting voltage to the tail lights and fuse underneath the hood. My question is are there any places that the wire between the light switch on the column and the fuse branches off to? Or does it go straight from the column to the fuse under the hood?
well i have power at and after the fuse. However i don't have none at the back lights. I DON'T HAVE THE CIG LIGHTER WIRES AT ALL. It seems as tho they were hacked out. I checked under the dash also there were no loose or frayed wires for the radio or anything for that matter and everything is nice and tight underneath the fuse box (under the hood). None of the fuses under the dash a blown either checked them all while i was under there.
I did pull a 4 prong relay that said TAIL on it. I suspect that this is part of the circuit aswell? Any other suggestions or ideas on where to look next?
EDIT: Fixed problem broken wire in the harness where it goes down by the radiator.
