| Post subject: | Rear Lights do not work |
Hello all, My car is a 96 5.7 Z28 and for some reason I now have no rear lights or dashboard illumination inc heater controls ect. The dash fuse for the tail lights had blown so i replaced it, The new one blew as soon as i switched on the lights. The only thing that I have done to the car is take out a poorly installed stereo and replace properly with a decent head unit however as far as I know the lights were fine afterwards. Has anyone experienced the same issue and can anyone help? Many Thanks Steve |

Sounds like you've got a short somewhere. You'll need to work methodically to track it down. It will help if you have a wiring diagram, so that you can identify everything that's linked to that fuse. Are you able to easily disconnect the new radio, just to make sure it's not part of the problem? If it was me I would start by removing all of the bulbs and see if the fuse still blows. That will tell you if it's in the loom or the taillights. If it doesn't blow, add one bulb at a time (and removing each one as you go), to see if it's one particular bulb/socket that's causing the problem. Good luck. |
