Un sure what the problem is looking for common problems.checked fuses and bulbs already, and Im pretty sure that they went at the same time. My brake lights still work and my head lights and all other lights, just no tail running lights or any dash lights. Any ideas?

    1. Remove the covers from the steering column and locate the 14 cavity connector at the combination switch and verify there is good battery voltage on the Red/Green wire. If there is not look for a wire problem or fuse box problem.

    2. If there is voltage there then turn on the switch and the contacts in the headlight switch should connect the Red/Green wire to the Red/Black wire and light up the taillights and the dash lights. If there is voltage on the Red/Black wire look for a wire harness or connection problem. If there is no voltage jump the wires and if the lights work the combo switch is faulty. Hope this helps
