ok so this is not a taurus but its still a ford, my grandpa has 97 crown vic p71. last night i had to borrow it cause my car is in the shop. well i went to leave work and head home and noticed the back light for gauges didnt come on, then today i checked it out and found out the parking lights and tail lights dont come on. the turn signals, and hazard lights still work fine. also the keyless entry the lights dont flash when ya hit either button to lock or unlock. i pulled each fuse out under the dash and tested them, all turned out fine. so what could the problem be? hope someone knows

The CVs from that era had lots of problems with the LCM (lighting control module).

so its not the headlight switch?

Could be either, but more lieky the LCM. You need to troubleshoot the system.

lights

Try double checking all the wires of the parking lights and signal along with the headlight switch. Maybe some loose wires or so. Also check the bulb, it maybe busted too.
