Last night, while traveling a backroad home, I ran over a small tree branch. After hitting it my dash lights and the right side running lights went out. I checked the fuses, nothing wrong there. None of my trailer wiring was harmed in the encounter. No broken lenses, etc etc. The hazard lights on that side work as well as the blinkers? WTF? |

i had the exact same problem a couple weeks ago. no tail lights, sidelights on the right side, and no dash lights. mine ended up being the fuse for the RH hand sidelights. you said you checked the fuses but if you didnt check that on you might want to. hope that helps some. Conor |

you have a shorted front fog light.disconnect both,replaced the fuse and reconnect one at a time until the fuse blows.the fuse box is located under the steering wheel inside the car. Don |

It worked fine pulling the trailer Saturday (without the lights on) but pulling the trailer home at the end of the ride it blew again. It's the trailer wiring!! Thanks for the help... |

Similar problem, 97 disco with lower fog & upper driving 7" lights on A frame. right tail light out and all dash lights fuse #8 burnt. Replaement fuse burnt out in less than 24 hours. The disco was in the dealer for five year heavy oil change only. The tech said the r/h running light were out and replaced the fuse only to burn out again for the third time in three days. I will try the idea posted by Don. 81,k Thanks for the tips..... |
