Great. I think I blew a fuse, if there is one

Post by Deadguy »

My taillights, break lights, and marker lights were working last night. Now the stopped. My headlights, high and low beams work, and my dash lights, but nothing out of the back or front marker lights. I would assume, if I blew a bulb, it would be just one. Is there a fuse inline somewhere?

If your A1 has a completely stock electrical system!!:

Get your trusty M38A1 Operators manual (TM 9-8014) out and open it to page 195 and review the lighting wiring diagram. You'll quickly see there are no fuses or circuit breakers shown. However there is one built into the main light switch. When it trips you loose all lights.

Then go to page 212, Par 171 and using Table IV you can check each harness cable run.
