Hey Guys

The rear tail lights on my truck have been out for a while now. I wasn't doing much driving at night so it wasn't much of a bother but the new job is getting me home a little later and having to drive with my hazards on is getting old fast.

My radio wasn't working either and I disconnected it a while back hoping maybe it had something to do with my lights shorting out but no luck. It remains disconnected. Just in the past few days my front running lights have went out as well.

I've tested all fuses multiple times (and replaced a couple of them) and checked and replaced bulbs. My brake lights, headlights, dash lights and hazards all work fine. I have the trailer light hook up on the rear bumper and disconnected it at the wiring harness as well hoping it was the problem but it wasn't.

Other than the minor obvious fixes I already tried, I have no idea where to go from here .... any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

have you tested the light switch

 

Yeah I actually replaced that back when the lights first started acting up. I tested the tan colored wire coming out of it and it lit up. I wasn't real sure which color wire to test back by the tail lights near the rear bumper around the wiring harnesses?

 

i got the same problem on my 2000 f250 SD. havent replaced the light switch cuz its soo damn expenzive and there are no returns on electrical equip. i have no running tail lights. i have rear brake lights and turn sigs but no rinning lights. all other lights on the truck work. im not tryin to take over your post just seeing if ambye somemore people could help us out. please please
