no back running lights or plate lights or fog lights
Everything else works...checked all the fuses...they are good. Turn signals work. Front running lights work. Checked them with a test light. Getting power only when the turn signal is on? But no power when i turn the lights on for the tail light to stay on? Any ideas? 2000 f150 4x4 extended cab 5.4

sounds like you have a broken wire in the park light circuit to the rear of the truck.
|
Would that also effect the plate lights? And the fog lamps? Wires all looked good from what i can see. It does have a towing package...and its kinda messed up. Would that have anything to do with it?
|
the running light and plate light are on the same circuit to the rear.
|
If the fog lamps do not work, has the fog lamp mod been done to the truck ?
http://www.svtlightnings.com/svt/how...s/foglamps.htm What does its kinda messed up mean for the trailer tow adapter ? |
no mod has ever been done with the fog lights. On the 7 pin trailor adapter there are some wires missing? Could this be realated to the headlight and fog lamp switch?
|
Did you check the 2 fuses for the fog lamps ?
Without the modification behind the switch, the parking lamps being out should not have an impact on the fog lamps. How about a little more detail on the trailer tow adapter ? What wires are missing ? |
i did a test light on al the fuses..all is good. There are just 2 wires that are out of the tow adapter. Do you think that could be a player in this problem?

i replaced al the bulbs in the tail ligts. When i put a test light on them...i only got power when they were in turn signal mode. Other than that no power. Which is leading me to think...the headlight switch? As for the 7 pin adaptor...to be honest i reallt dont know what wires are not connected. But i did re splice them. And it changed nothing. So i am kinda scratching my head over this. The fog light bulbs look fine. So thas why i am thinking...maybe the headlight switch?
|
ok...so i went back out and messed with it. Under the reat of the truck where the lighting is...i found a wire that was ungrounded. It was light green and yellow. So i grounded it. And nothing. So on the driverside...rear of the truck i pulled apart the tail light male and female plug. I could not get it apart. So when i did...it pulled some prongs out with it. It was very corrodid...and not i cant get it back together. So tomorrow i will get a new male and female ends...and hope that that works.
