Taillights and Dash cluster lights wont turn on! HELP!

Sorry if this is the wrong section to post.

Anyway, when I go to turn on my lights at night the gauge cluster and taillights wont turn on but my headlights do.

anyone have any suggestions? I need to fix this ASAP. Thanks!!

sounds like a blown fuse. I think the taillights are linked to the gauge cluster and side markers. if they are or not, fuse is always a good place to start, cheap easy fix that is easy to check.

Okay thanks, where is this exact fuse

to cold and dark for me to go outside and check so going off memory of when i blew mine about 6 month ago so bare with me. But i believe the one you want is under the hood. Be close to the headlight on the driver side. should be one labeled taillight, but wont hurt to check for any that are blown.

not to bring this back from the dead but i was wondering if anyone had the oposite of this problem. my car today on the way home, the cluster lights just kicked on with the switch off. i get home and look at it and the parking lights and the cluster lights stay on all the time with the switch off. when you turn the switch on the head lights come on and the cluster lights get brighter but when you turn the switch off the head lights go out and the tail lights and cluster lights stay on. now when i pull the fues for the tail lights everything goes back to normal, the switch turns the cluster and head lights on and off but then my tail lights dont work. im lost any insite would be apreciated.
