Tail light dash light ?

[malibud]

Ok I installed the tailight relay and now my 3rd fuse on the right does not get hot and break any more but still no tail or dash lights .

I have ..

clean all connections on the switch power on both sides of the switch

I have power on the green and white wire under the steering colum and behind the radio area (connection )

have power on both sides of the fuse

no power in the back

Could it be a gounding issue and could I splice the black wire in the back and screw it to the body . I have down loaded the manual and started to trace the green white wire down but which one goes to the dash lights ?

thanks

Download a copy of the FSM. In the EE section there is a breakout of all of the circuits. (By the way, put the year of your car in your posts or create a signature with the year. It helps to give model-specific answers.)

Are the front lights coming on? If not, check your connections going into the relay harness.

How did you determine whether or not you have voltage at the specific points? Test light? Voltmeter? Where did you put the negative lead of the meter? What fuses did you check voltage on?

Have you inspected all of the bulb sockets and cleaned out any corrosion?

Don't be quick to splice in new wires. You can create more headaches that way.
