Hello,

There are 5 fuses that run the system so we need to check them all, also there is a lighting control module that can be bad. Here are a couple guides to help you do some easy testing to see where you lose the power at.

Here are the fuse panel and lighting wiring diagrams to help us on our way.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please run some tests and get back to us.

Cheers, Ken
