Hello, I own a 1990 Ford Bronco. I also have a problem. I don't have any running lights. I replaced the light switch and checked all of the bulbs.Also, no dash lights. I do have head lights,brake lights,and turn signals.

thats because all the lights that aren't working are on the #4 fuse. now the problem will be a short somewhere which is causing an amp draw of more than 15 amps. hence why the fuse blows.

the most common culprits are the wiring just before the tail lights where they go through the rear quarter panels. remove your tail lights and inspect the wiring for cuts or cracks that could be exposing the copper.

see how that goes lets us know how you make out.
