Default Another Dash and tail light issue

Dash and tail lights out in 92 Cherokee SPort 2WD

Fuses and relays fine. Changed out the headlight switch, still no power to either. Am I probably looking ata short in the line? Are they on the same circuit?

In the Drivers rear quarter, there is a wire harness. On my brothers '99 it took out the tail lights and dash lights. All he had to do was unplug it clean and all was good.

Hope this helps you out..

Check fuses and check to see if trailer harness equipped. I see lots of shorts in trailer harnesses.

I think the tailights are on the same fuse as the dash lights. I would take a look at your fuses, see if that is where the problem be! Good luck!!

im having a similar problem, my tails work when applying the brake but not at night with the headlights. although my dash lights are working, i have a stereo system grounded to the body and frame with a good 11,000w @ 280A... could that be my issue?
