On my 2007 379 my front clearance lights (the ones in the same housing as turn signals) are not working on either side.
I checked and bulbs are good and no voltage to the light socket. The fuse I assume is the same one as the roof top and rear clearance lights? I pull it out they go off. The turn signals work up front but no marker lights. Any ideas?

Work back from the lights and disconnect harness plugs as you find them. Head lights off, one turn signal and other lights on. The turn signal power is for testing your test light as you work back to find power then work forward to find open circuit. Also make sure the bulbs are grounded.

I checked and I have the same circuit breaker. With it in my tail lights work but no fronts. Pull it out the rears turn off. I assume they are on the same fuse.
I guess time to start tracing wires. Heck I have a switch for fog lights but don't have any. I see the wires for them behind the bumper. I might just tie the front clearance lights to the fog light wires behind the bumper if it is too tricky to figure out. -
I've got a 99 peterbilt 379exhd doing same freakin thing. All marker lights work but ones on headlights. Fuses fine and relays fine. Turn signals work perfect just no running lights beside headlights. Pulled headlights out checked wires and installed led turn signals. Just clear turn signals. Had yellow led turn signals on before and had same problem. They worked fine on turn signals but no marking lights on them.

Trace the wires back from the headlights. They go to a connector under the radiator then back to the firewall
They tend to get pinched around the hood hinges -
I have been fighting this on a 2001 379.
I found it to be 2 bad relays on one side each and the flasher relay for the LEDs. The LED one had a burnt wire end. The headlights would be on but low beam one side both on other. Swapped 3 relays and now high beam..low beam..and running lights. Funny thing is now my running lights come on with headlights or with clearance lights. Didnt before. I'll take that since everything else works fine so fa..r it's a pete so I'll await the next issue. -
Why would anyone mount clearance lights on their headlight housing? Thats pretty weird
