Default Marker and parking lights out

Okay, oh knowledgeable ones, see if you can help us with this one!

Our running lights and tail lights are out... flashers, turn signals and brake lights working fine.

I've walked through fuses, but everything seems to be independent, with no single point feeding everything involved, so I'm at a dead end.

This is a 2006 Crescendo 8356, with another in a long, long string of electrical issues. Workhorse chassis.

BTW, we're at the French Quarter RV Park in New Orleans as we speak. Nice park, really close to everything!

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

sounds like a contact in your headlight switch. I'm assuming that you are testing them by using the headlight switch.

Just a guess but take a test light to the wires on the headlight switch and test and jump for voltage and continuity.

Test a socket for voltage using an alternate source for the ground. The two may share a common ground that is broken as well.

This is where a good tone generator comes in handy for a remote continuity checker.

Had the same problem on a Sun Voyager. I didn't find it after hours of searching. Finally I looked at the ground where it connects to the frame in the back of the coach. Mine was like a star washer with a self tapping screw through the frame rail. The frame has been painted and they should have cleaned off some paint where the gound connects, but they didn't and in time some corrosion built up under the screw and no lights.

I'm not saying this is your problem but all these light systems are on their own ground . Hope this helps.

Curt

On my coach they are in the fuse compartment (left side front) and I had the same problem when I was installing the toad plug on the coach, I shorted it out. Finally I found the fuse in the fuse compartment, but there are two big black boxes with more fuses. It was in one of those black boxes. And it seems like it is always the one that is the hardest to get to. I had to pry some big electrical cables out of the way in order to open the black box. OH WELL! I am a little late with my info, but I am glad Ginger had helped you out already.
