I am not too worried about that since they are just reverse lights. And once they are in the housing it should be a bit more concentrated and focused

If they were working fine, that would be the first thing that I would check.
Not many things it could be for them all to just stop working, especially if they are on the same circuit and fuse.
but if it did blow a fuse, I would start to trace the wires and find out why.
the obvious thing if it is the fuse I would check would be the grounds, after that if the are good, start tracing the wires and look for bare spots that could cause a short and blow the fuse.

Yeah, they are on the same circuit and fuse just two different switches. I have never had both on at the same time but I had to back up in a hurry so I had them both on. They both were on for 10 seconds before they turned off, I will check the fuse when I get up tomorrow.

Most likely the fuse than since both have not been on at the same time before

What size fuse are you running? I've had 4 100w lights on a 25A fuse and not blown it.

ha. cool. I recently got a mono d block,900 rms @ 2ohm and a jackhammer sub in single box for 100 bucks. Sounds exceptional for what it is. Better then not having nothing at all.

They are 55 watt lights with a 15A fuse, and I just looked and the fuse is blown.
I will just use two lights at a time then.
