No Tailights

This morning I took my RT out and whenever I touched the brake pedal the dome light went on. I checked my lights and I have no tailights or brakelights. I checked the fuse, it's okay. I checked the connectors to each tailght and no power. Any ideas? Thanks

Which connectors? I'd start w the connectors behind the drivers kick panel & jump 12V to the correct circuit for the brake lights(large filaments) and for the park lights (small filaments) & see if your good downstream & if good there jump 12V to the downstream side of the brake light switch (the white wire) & see if the correct wires in/out of the st column has continuity (for the brakes) at the steering col connector (hot in & 2 hot out to both brake lights). For the park lights pull the bakelite connector off the headlight sw & jump 12V to the park light(s) circuit & see if you have fire at the correct wire behind the kick panel.

Has the car been painted? I had to run dedicated grounds after painting to get good grounding

Robert I'll give that a shot.
Car was painted a long time ago. If this adds anything, the turn signals work, but flashers don't work at all (even front lights).
Thanks guys.

if your dome light came on, I would be checking the light switch as well.

The problem for me is I can't think of anywhere those two circuits cross.

Dome light goes to the dimmer and headlight switch. So that does go to the tail lights, but I thought the brake light circuit was split from that.

Either way, with parking lights not working either, that is where I would go.

Emergencies are probably a bad flasher. You have two. One for turn signals and one for emergency signals.

After testing all the connections I decided to try a spare headlight switch I had. Problem solved. Lights are all working again.
Thanks everyone.
