My rightside front headlight is out. My rightside parking light is out. My rear brake light is out. My right side front and rear marker lights are out. Also my instrument panel dash is lighting up either.

I just had this problem in my '89 735iL. Every car is different but the guy who fixed it said that the lamp control module was bad. It is not a cheep part so try the fuses first. I would recomend a repair manual from Bentley Publishers.com. there you can trace the wiring down if its not a fuse before you go and buy a 350 dollar part. good luck.
