electrical short
1987 S15
no taillights when I turn on taillights, the gas gauge goes to empty. When I turn on blinkers, the gas gauge goes to empty and both taillights and license plate light flash. Any ideas?

Run a temporary ground from a KNOWN good ground (I use battery) and see if it suddenly improves. Frames and pickup beds all make bad connections after a while.

There is no factory connection between the gas gauge circuit and any of the light circuits. Change all the bulbs you want. That's not the cause. This is most likely a pinched wire harness somewhere between the dash and the back of the car. There's a short somewhere in the harness that is tying these circuits together.
