no cluster or tail lights
Im going to look at a second gen for a buddy and all he can tell me is that there is no tail lights and no cluster lights, I am a general auto tech and most situations tell me to check grounds on both and the head light switch itself,
Is this something that is common, have u seen this before. So before i start pinning and tracing wires i'm hoping for insight. Thanks if you can

White/Green wire powered by the illumination fuse feeds voltage to the switch. As the **** is turned to the first setting the W/G wire passes voltage onto the Red/Black wire that turns on the tails and the Red/Green wire also receives power as well which turns on the gauge and dash lights. If the ground was bad then the lights would not pop up when the switch was turned to the second position.

Dash lights went out and no tail lights or side marker lights when the running lights were on or headlights either. S4's seem to have this problem more than S5's. Pull both the switch and plug through the dash and get back to us.

had this same problem with mine years ago... ended up being a blown fuse.
but just to be sure, i also checked the headlight switch and beefed up the harness.
