1982 300TD Passenger Rear Lights Problem
 

I don't have any brake, turn signal, or reverse lights on the passenger rear of my vehicle.
I've been told it might be a fuse. I looked at fuses and they are european, which I don't have experience with.
I looked for diagrams and the like but don't have much skill searching on here.
Please help.
thanks,
Ryan

again i have a 1982 300TD

If you just bought the car, replace all the fuses with same color ones... when they get old they degrade!

thanks, I've had it for almost a year. I will definitely replace all of them.
thanks and i'm sorry if that was a stupid question

there are no stupid questions only stupid people :)

I still havent replaced all of mine yet :)

The fuses were replaced and I'm still getting nothing. Any other suggestions?
I thought to change the bulbs, but since I had no lights in that area I thought It might be more serious

I would try changing the bulbs first. If your tail lights are like mine used to be they would fill up with water and they the bulb would burn out. The lenses will hold about 2 cups of water if you let it. Pull you tail light off, see if there is any moisture in the lens housing. Then replace the bulbs and see if they work. You may also have to do a little cleaning up of the metal strip that holds all the bulbs. Since mine got wet there was a bunch of corrosion on it, which kept the lights from working properly.

Note: If your tail lights are collecting water. Get some closed cell foam and make new gaskets, it's much cheaper than dropping $60 for two gaskets.

Same thing has been happening to me. Since the car is so old. so ive just been replacing the fuses when things go out, and in all the cases, a new fuse fixed the problem, like my windshield whiper motor, the radio, the turn signals etc.

There is a big connector on the light unit where the harness plugs in. Maybe it has come disconnected?

That reminded me of something else. If I remember correctly, there is a wiring harness plug under the drivers dash that feeds all the lights on the back of the car. Look for a plug about 2 inches long by 1/2 inch wide under the drivers dash (near the firewall, I think). Have you been doing anything under there?
