Does anyone have any idea if there is a fuse for the side mirrors that controls the mirror turn signals and puddle lights. Also, the center cab stop light? Are they part of the same circuit? I can't figure out why both mirror turn signals and puddle lights don't work??? If there is a fuse, what number is it. And also is the middle stop light on top of the cab part of it. They all went south at the same time so Im thinking a fuse???? Whats funny is the a mirror adjustments work fine on both sides. What gives???? UGH

2012 is the year. I'll download the owners app off the net.
Thanks for the help.

The mirror lights don't seem to be very durable, I have a 2010 and when I bought it all mirror lights were out. Replaced all of them and one puddle light lasted less than a year. They are a little pricey for what they are but not terrible. Not sure I'll keep replacing them if the replacements don't last

I have a 2011 2500. The left puddle light stopped working a couple of years ago. The right side has a mind of it's own. After checking on the cost of replacements, i'm not going to worry with them.

Start with a test light and see if you have power going to the socket.An electrical spike can take out a bulb at under 15 volts.Ny 2500 is a little older but diagnostics are the same.

UPDATE: As it turns out, it is the lights. I guess I hadn't really noticed them being out for a bit. 1 puddle light works, used it to check the other and bingo, bad light. Problem is they come in pairs and you have to buy 2. Mirror lights out as well. I try to pull my mirrors in whenever I park the truck but sometimes you forget. They've been smacked a bunch so maybe that is what caused the turn signal mirror lights to go out. Anyway, looks like all is good. Thanks for the help!
