Best Answer

Check the fuse first, then the switch. If this is an early model Chevy Silverado (1988-1994) these are famous for having bad light switches. If this is a post 1996 model, you may have anything from a bad ground to a faulty body control module. Another thing to look at is if someone did trailer wiring recently, this could have caused a problem with both circuits. The tail lights, side markers, parking lights and dashlights are on one circuit, while the stop lamps or most likely on another one. They will most likely have a ground in common.
