My VZ sedan has suddenly lost parking lights and some instrumentation lights.
No fuses blown ( specifically 10A park light ) and the parking relay ( has been reseated ) is activating with the light switch.
Headlights, blinkers, interior light all OK.
Any thoughts as to next step ?
Any help at all would be appreciated.

When you say some of the instrument lighting, what in particular is not lighting up?

Going to state the obvious here, but I'd be checking blown globes and checking power at the globe holders before doing anything else.

Thanks for advice, StreetWagon. I will do as you suggest - I thought waste of time when all 4 went out suddenly.

I have found the fault - sorry for the slow update.
Problem was a faulty relay - it would activate up/down with the park lite switch, but the points in it must have been burnt so that no lites activated.
Quickly diagnosed by swapping with the rear screen demister relay - same part no.
A replacement generic relay from SCAuto fixed the problem. Thanks to those who responded.
