I have a 98 GC Laredo. Yesterday I TRIED to install aftermarket reverse lights. After wiring the passenger side I checked and all was good. After I wired the driver side everything went straight to hell. Now I have NO reverse lights AT ALL. Nor do I have any turn signals, rear wiper and the "info center" above the rear-view mirror also went out. First thing I tried was to uninstall the lights, (after checking the fuse first of course) -- NO CHANGE!!

Next I checked and or changed ALL the fuses behind the kick panel and the power distribution box under the hood also changed most of the relays, again -- NO CHANGE!!

It's driving me crazy, how are all the related circuit- wise?

any ideas anyone?

I had this roblem before what happen was i replaced the bak lights and turned out the wiring could not handle them so it completely burnt the wire. looks normel from outside but u open it up all burnt. where i foung the burnt wire war in the back door panel right under it. strangley all i did was disconnect it and everything worked again. i have not found what that wire did but not really bothering cause happen bout a year ago. if you get panel off you find a wire that can disconnect. you touch it and it will be very hot idk just it prbably cause the wire burnt out. hope this helps

Thanks Murf

I tried disconnect but still the same. I still don't understand why the other stuff went out at same time -- different circuits.

Just wire them to a switch. Then you don't blind people in parking lots or the street. Then you can also turn them on when ever you want/need.
