ok so i bought a new truck and i have some light issues.
my running lights all work and my headlights work but i have no brake lights and no blinkers.
could this simply be bad bulbs?
can i buy these bulbs from my local pep boys or auto store?
can someone tell me what bulbs to buy?
thanks

Here is a link to a pdf of the Swiss wire schematic.

Pay no attention to the highlighted circuit, it is for other applications

I agree, check that breaker, had the same problem about two years ago (a couple of times after re-setting it as well). Sprayed some electrical contact cleaner in there and than followed with compressed air. No problem since than. compressed air is now part of my annual maintenance.

The breakers do go bad, so check that breaker for continuity too. (perhaps obviously)
