89 c1500 parking/dash lights out

89 c1500 parking/marker and dash lights not working, fuses are good. Everything else still functions, turn, hazard, brake, horn, hi beam indicator etc. Haynes wiring diagrams not much help. I cannot see where these circuits interconnect.
I am hoping someone has had this problem and can save me a lot of troubleshooting time.

thanks for your assistance

MY light switch burned out and caused the same problem.

yeah for some reason my trucks backlights or whatever for the gauges dont work, and the hazard lights havnt worked for years...plus the left blinker sticks....the fuzes are all good and everything, but anyways i just learned to live with it after it gave me a headache tryting figuring it out. :biggrin: its an 89 C1500 too.

Thanks for the reply LT1 Kayker, I might have to try that.

heh np. Trying to do electrical work in a 20 year old truck can turn sane people into nutjobs pretty fast. :grinno:

Oh yeah, and if its the lights that went out in the dash like my truck you could just attatch a gameboy light thingy, or any kind of neon or whatever light you want on the side of the steering colum. I got a gameboy bending overlight thing and attatched it to the top of the colum behind the steering wheel. It looks kinda funny but i enjoy being able to see what gear i am in at night haha. If you really want you could ask some other people on this site that are intellegent (not me :lol: ) and they will tell you how to do it and everything but i like my little light better than taking off the dash and all that shizzaz. good luck with whatever you do.
