Only found vague references to this problem in the archives....

My rear, driver-side, running light is out. It's not the bulb, I swapped bulbs with known good passenger-side bulb and it still didn't light.
Used a Volt Meter on the wiring harness in the trunk and it appears there is no voltage even getting to the bulb fixture.
There's only one fuse for the running lights, right?????

Now it appears my front driver-side light is out as well (somehow I don't think it's the bulb :-( )

Anyone familiar with this problem????

Thanks a ton.

Check the underhood fuse for the corresponding headlamp. Each headlamp has its own fuse, driver's high, driver's low, etc..they are all in the power distribution box under the hood.

Thanks.

The 'Headlight' Hi/Low fuse wouldn't effect the 'Running Lights' would they???

My headlights work fine - the problem is my rear/left running light.

signed - stymied.

Huh?? OK, RUNNING lamp (DRL) or PARK lamp? If it's PARK lamp, check the bulb, they're dual fillament (sp?) bulbs.
