problems with 93 Crown Vic instrument panel and clearance lights

Just flushed out the radiator and removed the air box to replace the
thermostat on a 92 Crown Vic, and when I went to test drive it at night,
there are headlights, and turn signals (when I use them), but no rear or
front clearance lights, nor any instrument panel lights.

I don't have an owner's manual for this car, and the Haynes and Chiltons
books are pretty much useless in that they don't have a diagram for a 92
Crown Vic fuse box.  But I have checked all the colored fuses (the ones
you can see through) both under the dash at the left side of the car,
and the power distribution box under the hood next to the battery.
Nothing seems to be blown.  Is there a fuseable link or another relay
someplace that I don't know about?  I can't imagine what I could have
done to blow out the lights.

Any suggestions from someone who has had this problem before?  Please
don't tell me to go and get a better handbook or an owner's manual.  I
am looking for someone who has had this problem before and can give me
specific assistance.

Thanks!

Let me also add that I do have brake lights - both at the rear corners
and the third eye brake light.

Have you checked the light switch on the dash?

On my '94 Tbird, such switch controls all lights you mention
being out. Might be worth a peek.

After checking with a couple of other sources on the net, who all
suggested changing the light switch, I did so. Everything worked fine.

Thanks again!
