Miles Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 All of my instrument lights went out. I looked at two schematics and they don't show the instrument lights. Are they fused? Is there a common plug for the instrument lights? Thanks Miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted December 4, 2003 Author Share Posted December 4, 2003 Found out tonight that my tail lights, marker lights and parking lights are all out. These are all on a common circuit and fuse. Checked the fuse and it was blown. Replaced the fuse and disconnected the tail lights and marker lights and the fuse blew when I turned on the lights. I recently had the car painted and the body shop only removed the marker lights. Unplugging the marker lights still results in a blown fuse. Any ideas where to look?

Tim240z Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Clean all the connectors and double check the ground wires that are attached to the body near the tail lights. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles Posted December 5, 2003 Author Share Posted December 5, 2003 Found the problem. After painting my car last week the body shop techs reversed the wires on two of my marker lights sending power directly to ground. The painter sprayed the marker light wires so the techs couldn't match the color codes correctly. Switched the wires and all is well.
