ok, here's how it is.
Recently, I had a rear signal light problem (left side), and today i tried to fix it, and seemed to be a bad connection (dont know where - cable perhaps) Now, when i turn the lights on, my parking (position) lights on left side (both front and rear) are not working (not headlight, just the parking or position light - dont know how you call those lights on the front corners frown )
Anyway, i looked in the manual, and couldn't really find fuses for parking lights, or just taillights. There are fuses for left and right high and low beams, but nothing on tail lights or parking lights.
Anyone has any ides? frown
What is the wiring harness? What does it include? all the wiring in the car, or just under the hood...you know, wiring for engine components.
What does that wiring harness recall include?
Can anybody help me, please:(
i dont wanna take it to the ****ing dealer...i just took it for another o2 sensor...****ing cost me $300.
Hopefully this is a recall problem frown

thanks for all your help!

There are two fuse boxes/panels, one beside battery and one under dash driver's side. The latter flips down for access after you push a button on its right side.

Previous poster has noted applicable fuse number for your problem, which should be shown in your owner's manual.

There are numerous wiring harnesses throughout car, but the one you are seeing most mentioned in various posts on this board refers to the engine wiring harness. Some models have experienced insulation cracking from heat, and Ford has extended warranty on them.

i know that there are two fuse boxes. I checked both of them, and I also checked in a owners manual for the parking/side lights. Unfortunatelly, i read that thing about 20 times and i didnt find anything like tw0wheelin mentioned above. I dont have haynes manual, but i will go and check those fuses he mentioned.
by the way, F33 and F35...how do i know which one are those?

thanks a lot for your help!
