The Tail lights and dash lights are out I checked and replaced the bulbs. Is there a relay that controls turning ot dash lights out when the tail lights dont work. How do I find and replace it.

Hi ww9d,

The taillights, dash lights and front side lights are all on the same circuit and is controlled by the light switch. Power supply is from Fuse # Park LPS ( 15 A ) located in junction block # 2 in engine compartment.

Here is a guide to help you check the fuse and the wiring diagrams for the systems so you can see how they work along with the fuse locations:

Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Cheers
