Ive checked the fuses and they are all good so i know its a wireing issue, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions where to start at?

To be more specific with the problem, none of the lights work in the tahoe. The dash lights work, but none of the overheads do. Also the mirror controls dont work at all.

Its a 97 2 dr LT Z71. Well, the dome lights and navigation lights don't come on when i enter the car or when i press the button to turn them on. So at night i can never see anything except what is lit up by my dash. Then the mirror switch and movement controls just dont work at all. I was thinking that maybe they are connected to the same problem. The trailer light set up looks a litle butched up. so maybe that could have something to do with it? bad grounding there? but i honestly have no idea where to start looking.

unknown at this time.
Maybe I'm lost a little bit but navigation lights? I will assume you mean exterior park/marker lamps.

The first thing that comes to mind is **** fuse #7 under the hood it supplies fuses #3-9-15 which cover drl,functions, fogs, curtousey items(power mirrors), parking lamps and one other I have not identified yet.

Are you good with a multimeter
