Lights not working.
 
All my lights aren't working... The high beam signal is on but the stalk is in the neutral position, the high beams aren't even on. The side marker and tail lights are illuminated as well. I can't turn on the lights, signals or anything. I think the flasher relay is blown. Idk what else. Maybe the fuses for the lights? It's all Oem except my front turn signals are switch backs and the side markers are led.

Please help!!

check your fuse, replace a 15a fuse from the spare slot in fuse box, easy fix!

Yeah it wasn't the fuse. I think it's either the electronic flasher relay or a shortage somewhere....

The OEM flasher unit is quite reliable so it may not be the flasher unit.

You might want to uninstall the front switchback LEDs and reinstall the factory bulbs and see if that resolves the problem. The side marker LEDs should not affect the turn signal lights because they operate independent from each other.

Thanks, I installed all the oem bulbs and still no go. I'm guessing since it's not the relay or a fuse. Then it has to be an electrical shortage somewhere. I hope it's covered under warranty since I've only had it since July 2013. Have an appointment with the dealership tomorrow.

Wow what the fuck. They're seriously going to tell me because I have leds in my dome light and my trunk that it's not covered under warranty anymore? That's some fucking bullshit.

Yeah it was stupid as hell too. I swear I checked every single fuse. Thought it might have been the flasher relay. And changed all my light back to oem except I forgot my high beams. Ugh. I switch to some koya yellows or something forgot and they said the high beams were drawing too much power and blew a fuse. And on top of that because it was not Oem. It voided my warranty. Some bs. Had to pay 126. Ugh. Stupid.

I am glad to hear you got it all fixed!!!

Which fuse was it?!? I thought I checked all of mine well too, but I was also working in the dark and a little frustrated at the time.

That doesn't necessarily mean your entire warranty is void, just that particular claim. Worst case they might give you grief over electrical system warranty issues in the future.
