taillights not workin

after bodydropping has anyone misplaced a ground that would stop the sidemarker lights, dash lights, and rear running lights from working? none of these are working in my 94 hardbody, and i cant seem to locate any loose wiring that would cause them not to work.....

Check the fuse.





Not kidding, happened to me. At some point during my build the fuse popped. I was checking the wiring all up and down the truck, so maybe give it a shot.

Yeah and check if the wires were wrapped in tape sometimes they get hot and melt together causing them to short out. Or the fuse you got in there is too high and the lights burnt out and it didn't burn out the fuse. Good luck man!

It is always good to check tohe fuse first. Check your grounds, then get out the test light or multi-meter and start checking powerat the fuse and work you way to the bulb.

true story, i had a wire behind my radio cause this to me one time on a 91 , its a pink wire cant remember the stripe color on it but it was touching against one of the dash braces and causing the fuse to blow for all the running lights and dash lights.
