Title: No Dash or Tail Lights with headlights on PLEASE HELP!!!
Post by: KS_Caveman on October 22, 2009, 08:04:27 PM

I added some off road lights to my 06 Jeep Wrangler and used the cigarette lighter ground to ground the lights out of laziness, and must of blew a fuse. Now I can turn my headlights on but I have no back lights on my cluster panel or radio, and no tail lights. I do have brake lights. PLEASE HELP.

I'm not 100% sure on TJ's but there is a small 15amp fuse in the power distribution box under the hood on the YJ.

Did you check the fuse panel on the side of the dash on the driver side?

Dash and tail lights are the same fuse in the panel by your left foot

Where Is the fuse Block? I know there is one behind the glove box but I looked on drivers side and did not see one???

The 06 threw me off. IIRC the older TJ's have a fuse panel on the driver corner of the dash.
Check your owners manual.

Best of luck.

 :stupid: I thank I found the problem, my #1 (20 amp parking light) and #2 (20 amp stop light) were blown. I swear in my old age I checked the darn things.  :brick: But I hope that this will fix my problem...
