No Rear Lights
Hi all....
'89 F150 5.0 .....rear blinkers and stop lights work, as do flashers. No "running" lights. Would this be a headlight switch problem? I took a good look under the truck at what I thought might be the most likely places where a break would be, but all wiring seems fine. Thanks in adavance.

Try playing with the switch between positions.
You may find a "sweet spot" that will verify it's the switch before you spend $60 on a non-returnable electrical item you didn't need.
Ask me why I know...

Sometimes the plug for the switch melts as well, causing all kinds of problems.
This should be correct for your 1989 application.
