    Searching forum threads, seem to be a million different suggestions on this, so I just thought I would ask......

    I started my truck the other day, and noticed that I had
    NO:
    DASH LIGHTS, REAR TAIL LIGHTS, or LICENSE PLATE LIGHT.

    Headlights still work fine, as does everything else.
    I have checked various fuses referenced in the manual, but have found nothing wrong with them.

    I do not have DRL.

    Anyone had this problem and found a fix?

    Can you clarify what you mean by no dashlights? Is that no illumination, no indicator lights, or both? Did all of this start at the same time, or could you have unrelated problems that you noticed at the same time?

    It was dash/gauge illumination, license light, annd running lights all at once. I did solve it. I figured a fuse because they went all at once, but first time checking, fuses appeared ok.

    Turns out, the 10-amp fuse for tail lights (under the hood). #8 was bad, and I missed it the 1st time checking.
