Wife is out of town, called & said she "hit a bump" on the highway and lost the instrument lights. Any suggestions where to start checking when she gets back today?
Thanks,
Dwight

First thing I'd check is the dimmer switch (lower left of dash) and it's associated wiring for a loose/broken connection.

Thanks for the reply Joel. I now have more information:
The fuse for the Tail/Illum. lights was burnt out, replaced. All other interior fuses are OK. Tail lights still inop. as well as headlights not flashing with keyless entry activation. I know I'm missing something in the chain here. A single bulb out (tail light) won't do this will it? Is there a breaker or something I'm not considering?

if you have a towing harness unplug it and see if it solves your problem.

No towing harness. I'll check further Wed. morning when I have the time, meanwhile she'll not be driving after dark.

Was a loose stereo wire, must have been some 'bump'. Maybe I should check for front end damage? ; )
