I have no crispy fuses in my truck. So I'm completely lost with why I have my indication lights, headlights, and glove box light. But no park or tail lights, no cluster lights or on dash lights, and my fog light indicator is working backwards...(Little green light for fogs is on when they are turned off, but off then the fogs are on) Battery never drops under 14V on the gauge even with the radio up. Worked fine with the radio and everything for a few days.

Do ANY of the rear lights work? (aside from the brake lights turning on the parking lamps...)

Check all connections for the rear lights. I think there is a connector on the underside of the cab somewhere for the rear harness, also, check all grounds on that harness. (I think there might be some in the back....)

You also might want to pull some bulbs, and verify with a meter whether or not you are getting power back there.

I think someone said something about a multifunction switch too? This all happened after a large chunk of my dashboard broke off and fell into it. But I'll have to check grounds and everything tomorrow. Cause it's almost 7:30 and cold lol.

Take the covers off of your steering column around the turn signal lever. (which is what operates the multifunction switch.......) Seems the wires have a tendency to pull out of the connectors, especially on trucks with tilt wheel. Check and see if you have any pulled, broken, or shorted wires there.
