Only lights that work are the head lights and the amber lights in the front bumper. No tail lights at all in the back and the amber lights next to the headlights are also out.

What should I look for besides the switch in the dash?

What to check next

Diagnostic guidance. Suggested checks and possible repairs are separate from the owner's reported results.

Have the correct fuse locations, feeds, grounds and lamp circuits checked using the truck's wiring information. Restore and verify brake-light operation before road use.

I checked the fuses in the side of the dash, all were OK. Is there another panel under the hood? I was unable to locate one.
