I have checked all the fuses and they are good. We have plans to check/replace the relays this weekend if we get a chance to look at it.Could it be a fuse or relay?
I know some setups use relays so the switch doesn't need to carry as much current.
It turned out to be a very simple fix. I replaced both the light relays and everything works as it should now.I have checked all the fuses and they are good. We have plans to check/replace the relays this weekend if we get a chance to look at it.

Poor connections could cause heat, this in theory, could melt wires. Something sounds like it's drawing too much power, but the fuse shoudl have popped preventing the wire melting and possible fire....Things seemed to be fixed for a period of time until the other day the lights quit again. This time under further inspection it appears it has burnt the relay up and the red power wire in the main wiring harness for this relay. This will not be an easy or fun fix. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
I found the problem. The burnt wire had grounded out just behind the fuse box on a screw head that it was rubbing on. Pulling the wire out and removing the loom was not fun, but its fixed and everything works as it should again.Poor connections could cause heat, this in theory, could melt wires.

Glad you found it. It is quite common for wires to wear through where they touch the frame, i wonder how many fires are caused when they short out on the non fused side of the harness.....I found the problem.
