OK guys, here's the deal. I have a 2001 DII that has 298k miles on it and it is still going strong! Recently I towed a trailer and had hooked up the trailer lights using the standard pigtail converter. All went well, until later that night when I drove home and noticed that I did not have dash lights. Then after checking I did not have tail lights on either side. The turn signals and brake lights worked fine. I checked the fuses and the 10amp fuse was blown. I replaced the fuse and everything started working again.
Then two days later the dash lights went out again I checked the tail lights and the left tail light was and is working fine. However the right side tail light is not working. The fuse is good. Today I checked all the bulbs and they are fine. I have power at the pigtail for the trailer, but still no rear tail light and no dash lights. Any help would certainly be appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Rowdy

d2's have this issue around 298k miles... well not really but congrats on making it to that mark.

I would go back to where the problem began.... Did you splice the tow harness in?
