Check your headlight switch for any burnt terminals on the connector. One of them is usually bad shape if you have an issue like that. There is a replacement harness that can be purchased online if yours is that bad. If it doesn't look too bad, might try the headlight switch first as that is common to fail.

If you have no dash lights, you probably don't have parking lights either...have you checked ?

I said parking lights...not headlights or brake light. (1st detent when you pull the headlight switch out)

not the same thing.


Do you have lights at all 4 corners & the license plate without turning the headlights on or touching the brake pedal ?
