Dash and rear lights not illuminating

[BenD]

Ok, some of you may know that the only thing i need to do to get my car back on the road is to get the rear lights sorted!

Now, i gave up trying to find the problem, but i can tell you that it is not an earth problem, as i can put a feed on the lights and dash, and they will illuminate, the problem is, i cant seem to find what is causing them not to work.

If anyone can shed any light on the problem, maybe experienced a similar problem before, please give us a shout, as that car is wasted sat on my drive :evil:

cheers

all dash and rear light's work off fuse no 10 (i think) basically the circuit is switched earth when you turn on the light's the negative wire's is switched to live.
