Where are the fuses for tail lights on a 1999 Chev astro van?

The fuse for the taillights on a 1999 Chevy Astro van is typically located in the underhood fuse block. However, there's no single fuse for *both* taillights. There are likely separate fuses for the left and right taillights, and possibly even separate fuses for the running lights and brake lights within each taillight assembly.

To find the correct fuses:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best resource. It will have a fuse box diagram showing the location of each fuse and what it controls.

2. Look in the underhood fuse block: This is usually a rectangular box located near the battery. The cover should have a diagram printed on it.

3. Look for fuses labeled "TAIL," "STOP," or similar: These labels often indicate fuses for the taillights and brake lights. You might find "LEFT TAIL," "RIGHT TAIL," "LEFT STOP," and "RIGHT STOP" as separate fuses.

4. If you can't find it in the underhood fuse block: Some vehicles also have an interior fuse panel, usually located under the dashboard. Check there as well, referring to your owner's manual.

Important Note: Before checking any fuses, turn off the vehicle's ignition. If a fuse is blown, it will be visually apparent (burned through or broken filament). Replace it with a fuse of the *same amperage*. Using a higher amperage fuse is dangerous and can lead to electrical fires. If a fuse blows repeatedly, there's likely a short circuit in the wiring that needs to be addressed by a qualified mechanic.
