Maybe someone might have a sugestion my tail lights are not working at night when my main lights are on, at the moment im using my fog light at dusk and dont go for long drives at night.

I have checked the bulbs but they seem to be fine filament in place etc, and there dosnt seem to be a reason that they would all go together anyway unless it is a fuse problem right>?

Well i checked the fuses swaping the lamps one with the engine that also seems to be fine In the photograph is my fuse box arrangement and there isnt a second fuse box in the cabin unless its really secret coz ive looked everywhere.

Any Ideas?
(dont want to go to the dearlership to pay money well maybe i will have to but it seems a small problem i should be able to fix:)

There should be a fuse box under the dash on the left side of the car.It is really not that hard to find.On the U.S. 2000 models there is one there.
