I have a 2014 389 my tailights clearance lights don't work. The headlights and dash lights work fine as well as stops and turns. The roof lights work fine as they are the only thing! Fuse is fine. Any ideas?

Check the bulbs? Weird they'd both go out at the same time, but I've seen it happen. Is there a connector in the harness near the rear crossmember? Try unplugging that and checking the wire terminals with a circuit tester. If you have power there, check the ground connection.
dirthaller Thanks this. -
The lights next to the headlights aren't working.

Gotch. That's a headscratcher. Maybe trace the wires, see if you can find a terminal that pulled partially out of a connector or frayed wire or the like. Warranty an option?
dirthaller Thanks this. -
Ya this truck was new in Dec. This is the 3rd oos item I've dealt with and fixed on my own total cost $20 for first 2. This might have to go to dealer

I haven't had the pleasure of lifting the hood on a 2014 but my 09 389 has that fuse box on the right side of the firewall.. and the panel behind the glove box had a few loose connections on mine caused all kids of weird stuff.. I know you said the fuse if okay but are you sure there is only one fuse for the parking lights.. I cant remember if there is more than one on mine or not and unfortunately its 130 miles away from me at the moment or I would check it out. stupid idea here but try the interrupter switch just keep flipping it a couple times maybe your coffee splashed on the dash lol
dirthaller Thanks this. -
Thanx for making a fool out of me LOL! There was a fusebox underhood with a blown 30 amp. On the driver side. It blew again but now I have something to work with. I think the problem is in my trailer.

Its a 2014 and must be under warranty , don't mess with it yourself , just take it back and get it fixed by the dealer , afterall thats why you bought a new truck ? No ? Mess with it yourself and chance gewtting the warranty voided .

I'm screwed then because I have fixed the little things myself. 3 problems that are considered OOS. You should have seen the gap between the clutchbrake and the plate when I bought it. Fixed that too.
I bought new so that it was speced MY way and also for CARB (what a joke). -
I wasnt trying to make a fool out of you driver.. im glad I could point you in the right direction I guess the fuse box got moved to the left side on the new ones.. I hope you got back on the road..dirthaller Thanks this.
