    Hi there. I'm new to this forum thing.

    I own a 2006 Volvo vnl64t300 truck. We use it on the farm. I can't get the tail lights to work. Signal,brake,4 way all work but tail lights don't. Checked fuses and relays all seem to be good. Does anyone have any advise on how to fix this. A breakdown on the wiring harness. Tried calling Volvo but they were no help to me.

    Thanks

    LCM has no fuses for every bulb,. There are smart MOSFETs with short/open circuit detection (by Infeneon) and high current protection. So any faulty lamp - fault code.

    If u have no tail lamps totally - check six LCM Power supply fuses. If one ore more are bad - LCM saves power and disables tracktor tail lamp if trailer light are connected

    Mine done the same, pull the large harness apart at the tail end and check all the pins for corrosion and being loose. Clean'em up and put it back together and try that. Mine was a pin not getting good contact.
