tail light issues. please help !

[riz]

A quick set up.... I had my 82 blazer repainted and this weekend I was putting some things back on like the side mirrors and brand new parking lights and tail lights....... Here's the problem, I put all new bulbs in the 6 tail light assemblies as well as the two amber bulbs in the front bumper. I had all 4 passenger lights working properly ( running lights, blinkers, back ups both front and rear) and 3 of the 4 on the drivers side because I dropped one and it broke ( 1156 ) so I go out and buy another bulb and figure all I have to do is come back home and put it in and all 8 will then work............. not so! Now I have only the two big bulbs on the passenger side in the back working and none of the drivers side working. I'm so frustrated! Any ideas what it may be? Any pics of an 82 fuse block and which fuse is which? Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Thanks in advance,

None of the lights on your driver tail light are working? Or no lights on the drivers side at all? If its the drivers taillight only, id say check your ground, the entire taillight assemble has a bonded to body ground for all three lights in that cluster.
