I've had 2 Ford Tauruses, one was a wagon, the other a four-door sedan.
As I recall, the headlights and taillights turn on with the same switch, but they are not on the same fuse in the fuse panel. I'd try checking the light bulbs first, even though it's rare for those to burn out, much less both at the same time. If the bulbs are o.k., check the fuses--- glove compartment on some models; under steering column, left side, small removeable panel on others; some have another fuse box under the hood on the passenger side of the car. If this doesn't work, you might have a broken connection somewhere, or a bad flasher relay, as the taillights are what flashes when you turn on your hazard lights. You might want to make sure your turn signals are working properly and if not, replace your turn-signal relay. If these relatively simple and cheap fixes don't work, you may need an auto tech to run a voltage check on the lighting circuit to find the dead spot in the wiring. Good luck and be careful!
Check the fuses
Then go to a professional and have them look at it. Or your headlights and taillights light bulb thing is blown out. Either way you should go to a professional or have them come to you and DON'T DRIVE YOUR CAR!:0)
Possible ground issue at the taillights.
Do parking and dash lights work? If not, may be fuse most vehicles it is the same circuit
move the wiper connection around while somebody presses on the brake if brake lights come on replace circuit board to wipers my 94 chevy 4x4 did that found by accident 3yrs later was about to trash the truck
The covers do not come off. The bulbs are removed from the back side of the housing. For the headlights, pop the hood and look down in behind the headlights For taillights, open the trunk and you will see access panels that you need to remove to get to the bulbs.
I was told by the Jeep Dealer tonight that you have to remove the tires/wheels and pop it out from the back.
This can be due to a bad headlight switch. If it goes bad, most of the time you have no dash lights or headlights
Check your sensors.
no
Check your fuse for tail lights. I think the dash and tail lights are on the same fuse so you know when your tail lights don't work. Might have a short or an open in that circuit.
MAKE SURE THE WIRE DIDN'T COME DISCOBNBNECTED.
