Have you checked all fuses first? Is there a hitch on the vehicle?

Why did you unhook it? The reason I ask thereis one wire that runs from the front to the rear that wroks the interior lights and the running lights, one brown wire goes from the switch splits to the front and rear and the interior light when it gets to the back it splts between the two taillights

I got in an acident and it pinched the harness wires so it thoght that was the problem but it was not. There is that dumb spliter block in the rear that splits everything form the one main harness. But no lights are out it the cab

Find and follow the brown wire, it does split off like I said but if you keep checking upstream you will find your problem
