Dashboard Lights
Ok, I don't know why, but after I installed my stereo (finally if you guys read the other post lol)...the dash lights don't work (u know spedo, tach, etc). It's not from the stereo cause when I unhooked the stereo again, it still didn't work. It's not the fuses, cause every single fuse in the car is good. Am I missing a connection somewhere or something? Thanks.

i would put money on it thathe has no tail lights as well... if this is the case then in fact there is a blown fuse and the stereo is not hooked up right... check again... turn on your lights and see if your rear parking lights come on...
|
ya my head, tail, and parkin lights are on.....no ints.
|
It's not the switch, cause it's still connected. Any other ideas?
|
Double check your fuses.... I did this once, blew my dash lights and overhead lights.
|
I did that already.
|
when i did my stereo ihad a buncha alarm troubles and when i turned my lights on the dash lights were out too...it wa sjust the dimmer switch
|
But I checked that, it's connected...what else could be wrong with it?
|
u turned the lil nob didnt u? to the left of the steering wheel
|
Wow, no offense, but wouldn't that be the first thing I had to do? considering the dash lights only come on when u put the headlights/parkin lights on. Thanks anyways, but yes I've done that.
|
most likely its the ground. every older nissan i tried putting a deck in had to be grounded to the dash frame cuz the stock wire is junk or something i dunno. and yes this has happened to me. i kept blowing the fuse that lit my cluster(forget which one it was) but after i regrounded it, it worked fine.
|
I did, custom ground for the head unit, and I've been double checkin fuses and switches. I jsut can't figure out what the problem is.
|
The dimmer switch itself might be burnt out, you might have fried it when you first turned everything on, you will probaly need a new one.
|
do the gauges still function (needles move) but just the illumination stopped working - or is the cluster dead?
