Dash, side and parking lights... out!

[Decoy12]

Hello everyone. I went for a night drive the other day and after going over a speed bump, my dash lights went out.

Tonight however I noticed that the side lights and the parking lights do not work either.

The fuses were all checked and replaced. The headlights, turn signal/hazards, and break lights work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, as always.

My best guess would be your switch has a corroded or loose connection. time to get the meter out and test.

Ok I will test the switch connection or any other connections... perhaps something got bumped loose. I noticed another with similar problems, but it was for a 280z and I'm sure that the electrical system is different on them.

Different yes but the light switch assembly is close if not identical.
