1) swapped stereos about a week ago, and ever since i did that my clister is no longer backlight ? The brake light, gas, seatbelt, ect. all still work, but when i turn the brightness knob to max, i still can even see the guages (very hard to tell my speed at night). Is it possible i unplugged a wire ? Simple fix mabye smile.gif ?

2) since i bought my car the glove box light has never worked. I replaced the bulb and it still doesnt work. Does anyone know what steps i should take to fix it/troubleshoot ? Is the glove box on its own fuse ?

Thanks smile.gif

i know what it is, you have the yellow/white whire touching a piece of metal, so you blew a fuse, i dont know which one it is but it has happened to me b4, the wire accidently touched the factory amp

get behind your receiver again and if your not using the yellow/white wire put some electric tape around it than replace that fuse! than everything should work fine again.

1. Maybe you unplugged the dimmer somehow? Blown fuse?
2. Check if the wires connectors are plugged in, in both the bulb and the switch.
