You should check and / or replace the 15 amp mini-fuse. It is in location #6 on the fuse panel under the instrument panel. 15 amp mini fuses are blue in color. Usually, but not always, you can tell if a mini fuse is burnt out by removing it and looking through the clear plastic to see if the fusible link is intact or open (burnt).

If it is labled, it may read "Parklamps, BSM, Instrument panel illumination"
Below is an image map of the fuse panel for a 2006 F-150.

SOURCE: no tail lights or dash lights

It is possible that they are not grounded properly. The ground wire could have become disconnected when replacing the battery or alternator.

Probably either a bad ground (broken wire, rust) or a bad headlight switch. The brake light circuit goes from the stop switch (Located up above the brake pedal) through the headlight switch, through the light bulbs to ground. The tail light circuit goes through the headlight switch, through the bulbs and to ground. The only things that are in common are the headlight switch (Is this the switch you replaced?) and ground.
Not much, but hope this helps.
Have a super day!

You may have a bad light switch or a bad wire at the light switch.
Only way to know is to remove the switch.

SOURCE: dash lights and tail light not working

The dash lights and tailights are on the same fuse link. everything else will work like brake lights and turn signals but this one fuse causues alot of problems. Sometimes this fuses isnt marked on your cover so you might have to look in the maual to find the right fuse . some will be under the hood some will be under the dash .

Good luck to you all on finding this little fuse hope you find it before the cops pulls out behind you when its dark :)

you have to check all fuses with a test light both fuse boxes under hood and under dash... if good next to look for is the light switch itself... has any radio work been done to the lately... if so alot of times hooked up wrong will blow park fuse as one of the wires to radio is the park voltage to tell radio to dim down some

2000 Lexus LS400 Instrument panel fuse

It's more likely a fuse is blown, the tail lights are on the same fuse as the dash illumination, check the tail lights if they are not working replace the fuse marked 'tail' in the fuse panel on the inside at the left side of the dash under the cover. At the same time check the 'gauge' fuse', there is a fuse location diagram on the cover.

94 Lincoln Mark 8. Dash and tail lights are not working. Turn signals and brake lights are work. Switched fuse for dash lights and it blew it immediately. Replaced it after and it didn't blow thr next...

Check the owner's manual, and the cover on the fuse box. Fuse sizes will be listed for each location. Tail lights use more amps than dash lights.

Dash lights do not work

Power is supplied to the instrument illumination by the "TAIL/ILLUM LIGHT" fuse, Fuse #4 (15 Amp) located in the dash fuse block under the left side of the dash. This fuse provides power for both the primary and secondary sides of the TAIL LIGHT relay. The Combination (Headlamp) switch provides a ground path for the primary circuit of the TAIL LIGHT relay. When the primary circuit is completed by the Combination switch, the secondary contacts close and provide power to the tail lamps as well as to all of the instrument illumination bulbs. The ground for the instrument illumination bulbs is a variable-resistance circuit which is controlled by the illumination controller. The final ground for both the combination switch and the illumination controller is Ground G302, located under the center console.

Dash and interior lights do not work

Dash lights are on the same fuse as the tail lights. Dash lights not working is an indication that the tail lights are not working. The first thing to check is that the tail light fuse is not blown. Most of the time replacing the tail light fuse will restore both the tail lights and the dash/interior lights. If this is not the case you may have to trace the wires and look for a broken or unplugged wire in the harness.

No tail lights

You should have a fuse panel under you dash inside. This is where the fuses are located for lights. Don't know the exact location, but you can pull each fuse to see if it is bad. This won't hurt anything. It just keeps you from hunting down a diagram of where the fuse is located.

The dash light said parking lamp out and all others lights work except tail light the bulbs are not blown. where is the tail lights fuse its not located in the fuse boxes..

The tail light fuse has to be located in one of the fuse boxes. IF it is not on the one located in the interior of the vehicle that is another fuse box located under the hood, normally near the air cleaner.
