I checked fuse for the Tail Lights, Dashboard and License but it won't turn on at night. What could be the problem? The bulbs are fine, i ran a fuse tester and it won't turn on, but the fuse is fine. Even replaced the fuse and it still won't work. BTW, the tail lights and dashboard are connected to one 10A Fuse (Red).

I don't know what the problem is but I think I'll just ghetto wire it for night time driving. (Have a switch on with separate bulbs so that the car's rear + dash can be seen at night). This probably beats paying a hundred bucks for an electrician to look at it.

Check those fuses again and again, mine did this once, and I thought it was something else, but I missed a fuse.

i had the same problem..it was the whole switch assembly itself(the stick with the turn thing on it.the turning lever)....mine was burnt out becuz the guy i bought it from hooked up foglights into the normal headlights. u can find them for realyl cheap...dealer sells them or 150.

Ok, it's not the fuse, but if i quickly turn the headlights on and off (and maybe halfway), sometimes they go back on and it works.. it's the lever ... but where's the damn fuse for that ? I triple checked the fuses and they aren't burnt
