The other night my head and tail lights, brake and parking lights and dash lights went out. Blown 20 amp fuse. Today I have no headlights, tail lights, or dash lights. Replaced all fuses and still nothing. Replaced the battery because the + post was wobbly and leaking. Still no solution. Dome light, blinkers, dash meters, and idiot lights work but nothing else. So what now? Any help would be appreciated. (1988 Dodge Dakota)

 

Check the fusible link, i believe the 88's had 'em, there should be one for the heads,tails, etc.

 

Check the fusible links. They are located under the hood, left side to the rear of the battery. You must replace them with the same type wiring which is available at auto parts store.

 

my 91 did the same thing. turns out my cd player was hooked into the wrong ground. so if u happened to hook another radio or something up check out ur ground and hot.
