DRL/dashboard/taillights

The DRls come on when I turn the ignition on, but when it gets dark, my dashboard lights and taillights do not. I try to manually turn them on, but I can't even get parking lights to come on. I checked all my fuses, which are good and also replaced the headlight switch. Any ideas? Thanks, Brent

not trying to contredict you...but sometimes the fuse dosent even look blown but it is.

i would say it sounds like maybe the light sensor up on the dash is going bad but if you said you tried to turn them on manualy....thats pretty tricky. your gonna find GM didnt exxactly go all out on electrical work for this car lol

Welcome to AF.

Sorry but our posting rules recommend that you post in the proper forum. Since you have a Buick Century I have moved your post to Buick Century.

Someone there should be able to provide assistance.
