Rear running lights dont come on nor does the tag light. Brake and signal lights work as do the flashers. All fuses appear to be good.

CommentBoth tail lights quit, although brakes, turn, hazards & reverse good
Ford F-150 2002 V8 triton lariat 178000 miles
Power windows would not work after having truck parked for sometime. When i first got it tuned up to get back on the road i noticed power windows didnt work. After checking and changing and adding missing fuses, the power windows worked but the night time running tail lights didn't work. Didnt notice at 1st bc it was daytime. But 1st night drive i found out later than one would like. So turn signals, hazards, brake lights, and reverse lights all work. But not the tail lights. There isnt any fuse directly labeled for this in the cab fuse box or the one under the hood. Anyone know what fuse controls these or could cause these to stop suddenly along with the dash cluster back light illumination stop work after the the first fuse fix to correct the power windows.

@Joe118 Instrument illumination (dimmer switch power) here is the diagram.

@AnthonyI have the regular 2004 f150 not the g10 so I’m guessing it would still be the instrument panel illumination?
@Joe1You're welcome. Let me know if it doesn't work. I have the 04f150 with the 4.6 v8. I will help you if that doesn't work.
@AnthonyWhat’s up, man? It did not work. I replaced. The fuse. Still doesn’t work. I even disconnected the dimmer. Still nothing. I have a 5.6 V8 now when I turn the AC on the hazard lights, light, but are not blinking also, I disconnected the dimmer and my turn turn signals are not working when I try to turn them on they both blink. Also, when I click the hazards, it makes a buzzing sound.
@Joe1You could have a short somewhere or the relay is bad. Or both
