Description of the problem	I was stopped by police due to the fact that my parking/running lights were not working. The signals and stop lights worked fine. My 2002 dodge ram is at the garage. They found the circuit board (power distribution center) under the fuse box is burned out. Cost from dodge, $400. 00. I think this is a safety issue, there is no indication that the light went out from the cab. The dash lights worked and the head lights worked. The garage informed me that is happening a lot to other dodge rams. *nm
