Lighting Issue (int, brake, and cruise)

[Schnitzer318is]

Just bought this car. 90' 325i with SRS. So far no luck on this lighting issue... checked applicable fuses and all were good. A bunch of them were wayyyyy over rated though, so I replaced them with what they should be. Any ideas guys?

The lights that don't work are: some interior dash lights, rear parking lights, brake lights on tails (third brake light works), and rear license plate lights. Also cruise control is out.Hope someone has a guess because I'm out. Was thinking maybe the headlight switch but that doesn't control brake lights, then thought brake light switch, but that doesn't control interior lighting. Maybe check relay by the antennae motor?

NM... gotta love PO's. Interior lights had dead bulbs... ALL of them. Brake lights ended up being check control relay in trunk which the PO had removed for some reason or other.

Everything is working tip top now :)
