Default 95 ram headlight/foglight/running light issues

hey, i've been having a problem with my truck lighting lately, seems that the fog lights don't turn on anymore, the dash lights don't come on, and the tail lights don't work.
i bought a new headlight switch because that was what everyone locally suggested, it didn't work.

some other info: the brake lights work, the signals work, the headlights work (high and low beam) and i believe the daytime running lights work.

i'm wondering if anyone else has any suggestions?

i've checked the fuses in the dash and under the hood, they all seem fine.

sounds like a relay problem, best to get ahold of the wiring diagram for your truck and find the relay associated with the lights that won't turn on.

Did you use the stock fog light button, or put in an aftermarket?
Stock fog lights or aftermarket?

I would have thought this but you answered this with your next statement.

Rules out the headlight switch

It took me about 5 fuses to finally figure out that I was crossing wires off the factory switch at the dash. Once I figured it out it was a cake walk.

Here is a link that I have found in the forums that is very helpful https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...tmas-guys.html

Hope it all works out

i had a wiring problem myself. take the dash piece right at your feet,(5 phillips head screws) and you can see all the wires, get a tester, and test some of the grounds.
