My RH tail light doesn't work along with the globe box light and instrument cluster light. Fuses are good. Not sure what to check next.

Did you check the fuses behind the dash & under the hood? I had that happen on my 97 D1 and it was a popped fuse. That light is kinda weird as it only lights up the glove box when the parking lamps/or headlights are on.

I checked both fuse panels.

Double check fuse 13 in power distribution compartment under hood (by radiator resevior) and fuses 11 and 33 within power distribution compartment inside dash (behind panel beneath steering wheel).

It was fuse #33. I swear I checked them all. Thanks for the help. It's all fixed.
