Dash lights and tail lights not working
I just got my car back from having some work done and now my side markers, tail lights and dash lights don't come on when I turn my lights on at night. Also I cant turn my fog lights on. The place where I had the work done denies any responsibility and I really don't want to take it back to them. What fuse or relay controlls those functions? What else can it be? Thankyou.

Its The Headlight Switch The Connections Are Worn. I Had The Same Problem A Couple Of Months Ago. I Replaced It Myself. I Paid About 240.00 Bucks For The Unit. It Took About 45min To Intstall.

same issue here. Replaced my switch with used switch i purchased at a Corvette show. It didn't fix issue. I went back and bought the headlight module 🫣 Still nothing. So I sent my original switch to the guy on ebay "Corvette Tony " I believe it was. He said my switch checked out on the meter but upon visual inspection he thought the H Beam looked suspicious so he "replaced" it. Put the original back in, same issue.. I noticed that the dash lights do come on when i turn the key to start but go out after its cranked and i let off the key.
