85 Running Lamp's Problem
Anyone ever experience all of the parking lamps not working? The headlamps will work when the lever is pulled to the end position and the blinkers work, however the running light and side marker lights will not work. Also the dimmer control is not working. Brake lamps work when engaged.

Remove your 10 amp Tail fuse and check it with an ohmeter and look at the condition of the fuse blades and the fuse block clips to see if the fuse is making good connection. If ok, then you have to see if you have 12v on the F (orange wire) terminal on the headlight switch and then see if you have 12v on the E (brown wire) terminal with the headlight switch in park or headlight position. If you do, then you have to see if you have 12v (headlights on) on a large splice (8 brown wires) in the wiring harness above the steering column. Is your license plate light on?
