Ok, so I'm switiching from my LED's back to stock lights. And I get everything in. And the turn signals work, the brake lights work, and the reverse lights work. However, the license plate lights, the parking lights, and the side marker lights dont.

Now, considering the side marker lights and the parking lights were never touched, I know this has to be a ground or fuse issue. All the lights in the back use the same ground per the Helm's so they should be fine. The under-the-hood fuse is fine, however... this has to be a fuse issue. So does anyone know of either a duplicate fuse and/or something else this could be? I'm completely baffled.

Help!!

 

first off I would buy a volt meter and test each bulb connector cause even though they use the same ground wire they eventually split meaning ond of the wires that goes directly to the bulb connector could have broken some how. I had this happen to me actually and had to cut a section of wire out and put a new one in.

 

Did you get the fuses in the drivers side foot well?

 

Do you know which one is for those lights? I couldn't check cause I didn't know I wasn't sure if the fuse is duplicated down there as well.

 

but that would mean that for some bizzare reason, all the parking light wires went out as well as the wires to the license plate and side marker lights, which just HAPPEN to be on the same fuse.

 

there's a list of all the fuses and what they do in the manual that came with your car.

 

Lol, a good point

Sadly, and I'll admit it, I didn't know that was in the manual... I guess I need to again

 

Ok so does it work now then.

 

Nah, I'm at work. If the fuse # is in then manual I will just check that when I get home. I am hoping that's the problem. Because if not I have no clue what it could be...

 

This isn't sounding like a fuse issue to me. Did you do the wiring for the LEDs?

 

Yup.

 

ben, if your still having troubles i can stop by tomorrow with a voltmeter, let me know

 

Hmmm... well I might take you up on that if you really don't mind.

In the mean time, I have an idea for something better then a volt meter (well not better, but pretty good)

I'm gonna take a wired LED light, just a singal one. And ground it against the trunk and see if I can get it to light. It MUST be an issue with power though, I have been researching all day and can't find any other cause...

See guys... this is why I hate modding, something always goes wrong for me... even if I'm trying to mod back to stock

 

So you'll never mess with another car then... ? BS. LOL

 

no he is just going to buy a car that is already modded.

 

so was it a fuse you have to have tried it since being home from work now.

 

Good news everyone It was a fuse, under the hood. Although NOT the fuse that the Helm's identified so be warned, there might* be a mistake in the manual.

All figured out now though. Thanks everyone for your help!

 

i think the fuse was 10a or b..dont quote me on this..this happened to me b4 with the parking lights not functioning, but for me it happened randomly
