    I checked fuses and relays they all check good.

    It might be like cars where if a bulb burns out externally your internal lights will be affected. I had a jeep if the dash lights went out that meant I had a brake light burned out.

    I jumpered a hot to all 3 switches, marker, dash and tail and they all work now. Guess I'll let the dealer figure it out now.
