Hi thanks for the chance. Turn car on and lights do not come on, head lights, rear lights, fog lights, dash lights. Only turn signal when lever moved to right or left. Brake light do come on when applied. Fuses are okay. Help please!
Thanks

A few things come to mind for this problem, of course we should make sure the battery is okay. An auto parts store can do this for you for free. Next is you have a fusible link that is out here is a guide and some diagrams (Below) so you can do some testing there.

If they check out the next place I would test is the ignition switch. Check to see if power is flowing through it.

Please let us know what happens and upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Cheers, Ken
