Found a 10 amp fuse blown under dash, replaced it but it blows as soon as the lights are turned on. Any Ideas as to where the short to ground may be? Thanks in advance.

My brake lights work but my tail lights and reverse lights don't work. Also my dash lights quit when I changed the switch for my headlights.

Check your fuses. I had the same problem with a 90 Honda civic. Dash lights went out, tail lights also went out. Replaced 1 fuse and all came back on.

Headlights go off but signal and tail lights stay on.

The lighting control module is defective and needs to be replaced...A well known defect. I know. I just researched this and replaced mine due to headlight outages. There is extensive information on the web regarding this dangerous defect. The NHTSA conduvcted an investigation and closed it.......No recall on the defective part. You wanna drive your Crown Victoria 2003-2005 at night?..........Pay money and replace the LCM.

Driver's headlight is dim; wipers only work if headlight is off

Sounds like the jolt from the barrier has caused a bad ground to occur. Look for a bad ground wire around the left headlamp in or around the headlight bucket.
Tighten or replace the bad ground wire. A poor contact will cause the headlight to light dimly.
