No Headlights, Taillights or Marker Lights
« on: September 20, 2017, 04:41:29 PM »
Just did our preflight check and all blinkers, and brake lights are working fine however we have no headlights, taillights or marker lights!  Checked all fuse layouts and see nothing for any lights. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Laura, Larry,
On my 07 Contessa, the headlight fuse is F24 and the Headlight Relay is R11. If either is faulty you will lose headlights and marker lights. Both are in the front electrical bay. Try switching out the relay if the fuse is OK. If both are good but still no joy, the dimmer switch could be faulty.
Good Luck! Steve

Thanks Steve
     I'll CJ at our next stop. Looks like everything on that switch panel is not working as well as the one in the center of the dash and the one by the passenger seat. Will trouble shoot it when we stop.

We think the problem is in the switches on the dash. That section isn't working so the other two sections are down circuit from them so they don't work as well. Contacted a company in Grand Rapids to see if they might have the part. If so will replace that module and hope the rest down circuit will work again as well.
