    Just picked up my first 2019 SR5 Limited and have a couple of questions.

    1. Cant get the fog lights to come on? Fuse? Switch? I've played around and just cant seem to get them to turn on.

    2. Tailgate panel lights don't work. I have switched to door and on and both don't work. Is it a bulb? Fuse as well?

    Fog light switch on steering wheel stalk. Think its on the left, rotating switch.

    Switch on each of the tailgate lights.

    I played with the stalk, same setup as my Tacoma, no dice.
    I played with the switches on the lights on the panel and again, no dice.

    1. Fog lights only come on with headlights, but since you already have a Toyota, it's probably something you're aware of already (but just in case) - does the fog light indicator on the dash show up when you flip it on with the headlights on?

    2. I'd assume bulbs first and look at those first. Can't know for sure until you lay eyes on the bulbs.

    Ill have to get back to you on that first question, and for the second point, i think the bulbs went and need replace. I'll follow up as quickly as I can.

    Being that you recently got his, Have you taken a visual to ensure they are plugged in? Possibility of some repairs being made before you took possession?

    Something came up and cant get the truck in till next week for an inspection. I did play around a bit and found that the fuse to the rear tailgate lights was shot, replacement of that and the lights are working again.
