Technican: Hello, Have you seen a wiring schematic for your car? I need clarification on your car's problem: Is the goal here to get park lights (front) and tail lights? When you say running lights are you referring to Daytime Running Lights (DTRL) as well? You've stated "flashers work"...meaning turn signals, or emergency flashers? I'll get to the data base today to research for suggestions to send you. Do you have a fax number? Is a cover sheet for a fax needed? Please advise.

Owner: Daytime lights are not a feature on my car. Turn signals work whether driving or parked. Flashers work meaning used them to see if all bulbs worked. When driving at night running lights meaning side markers & tail lights don't work. When I turn on headlights they & the dash lights are the only lights that come on. When I put lights on parking lights only no lights except dash lights come on. Replaced switch/same problem. Spent hours looking for corrosion &/or break in wires. Fax # is 918-486-7772. No cover page needed.

Technican: Behind the left side of the instruement panel you'll find a Lighting Control Module. Since fuses 4, 6, 13 are all verified good the headlamp switch terminal #3 (when on or park lamp mode) will output voltage on the White/Black wire to the Lighting Control Module terminal #13. The module will then close an internal relay circuit and output voltage on terminal #14 Brown wire to power the park/tail/tag lights. If when you locate the Lighting Control Module and the head/park light switch is turned on you find battery voltage arriving on the White/Black wire terminal #13 but there is no battery voltage output on terminal #14 Brown wire, the module is bad and needs to be replaced. The fax schematics are "fine print" and hard to read but I'll gladly send them to you. I explained what to look for should you have dificulty reading the drawings. Please advise.

Technican: One other note to help you locate the Lighting Control Module...It has four connectors plugged into it. You'll see the connector numbers and wire colors on the schematic as well.

Technican: Have you had the chance to locate the Lighting control module for diagnosis?

Owner: Not yet. Working 12's, haven't had a chance. Where would I purchase a lighting control module if that turns out to be the problem?

Technican: Parts will most likely be a Ford Dealer or Salvage item. It sure won't hurt to try a national auto parts chain store. When you look under the left side of the dash look for the module in the area above the accelerator pedal. You'll want to remove the left under dash close-out panel for access.

Technican: How are you doing with this repair? Haven't heard in awhile.

Technican: Will you please update the status of this question?
