[Mr-Snod]

Hi...Really dont know where to start....
Boxer Starspirit Autocruise 2003

Have Lost the following Electrics
Front LH sidelight ... rear is fine
Rear RH sidelight ...front is fine
Rear RH Number plate light... LH is fine
Front LH Top Running Light.... rear is fine
Rear LH Top Running Light ...front is fine

Everything else is fine, windows ,horn, indicators, main beams.
All fuses are fine. all bulbs fine
How do you go about tracing wires from where they come from , that have no power .

Thankyou

Have you checked all the fuses ?
It sounds like they may all be on the same circuit ?

 

[Mr-Snod]

yes all fuses are correct

I think it may be worth investing in a auto electrician ? They'll probably know where likely fault is and fix in two shakes of a lambs tail.
Us lesser mortals could be scratching our heads for days
I think earth connections to chassis are a common fail point.

Easy enough to check yourself whether there is a good earth to the rear lights with a half decent multimeter.

yes all good

Visual check or continuity check with meter? Just asking as I got caught out by only doing a visual. Hope you get to the bottom of it.

If you have a towbar, and associated electrics they can cause interesting problems.

Left and right are different circuits and fuses. If it was all rear lights, then likely an earth for the rear cluster. Front and rear is more likely a supply issue

Easy enough to check with a test light if you have power and earth on the bulb connections first
