SOURCE: 99 mercury mystide had rear running light broken

If the driver's side tail light is working, it's not a fuse. Use a test light to check for power at the bulb holder. One terminal will be for tail light, the other for brake/turn light. If the is constant power for tail light, replace bulb. If no power, trace wiring from bulb holder to driver's side junction. Probable broken wire between the two tail lights.

SOURCE: The LED Dash Control Center on my 2005 Mercury

when the headlights or parking lights are on,the readouts will automatically dim to compensate for night driving. that aside, the dimmer switch is could be bad or the wiring has become loose or disconnected or the connector on the readout is loose or has become disconnected. my odometer was randomly going on and off. and tured out to be a loose connector

Dashboard lights dont work

There is a dimmer switch that controls the brightness. Usually it wears out and you loose all the dash lights.

What number fuse is my brake lights in a 1998 mercury mystique fusebox

Sounds like loose wiring to either the earth or Postive connection in the main running wiring. rechk all connections particuarly yr pull off/on connections. Most fuses run at 10A for lights, but this depends on how many using this fuse. Chk that power is getting thru to various points with a meter, this will show u where the porblem lies. cheers

I have a 1987 toyota 4runner and no running lights or dash lights . The tail light fuse is ok but still no dash lights or running tail lights break lights light up fine.

THE DASH LIGHTS ARE USUALLY CONTROLLED BY A SMALL THUMB WHEEL NEAR THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH ON THE DASH. THAT IS A RHEOSTAT, THAT MAKES THE DASH LIGHTS BRIGHT & DIM. REPLACE OR BYPASS IT.

My 99 mercury cougar is a 2.5 v6 (Problem) it sputters all the dash lights go off and the power steering dosen't work and the motor dies after it runs for a few minutes. the car will start after it sits...

Sounds like a fuel problem. The electronics shutting down are the result of the dying power. Start by changing the fuel filter. If that doesn't work; I'd look into the fuel pump.

My lights in the car pulse in brightness

The alternator is causing this,it may be charging,but it is weak,and or,a diode in the rectifier is going out.It needs to be charging 13.65,to 14.25 volts,at the battery when engine is running.
