Well as I've posted before, my dash lights don't work on my car so I have one of those ghetto rigged cig lighter plug accent lights to see it or just use my cell phone for light. When i say the dash lights don't work, I mean the ones that light up the gagues, all blinker, check engine, low gas, air bag and all other lights work on the dash. Also the lights that are supposed to come on as a "backlight" on my temp control(for heat and ac) doesn't come on, but when I press the buttons, those light up. This all started happening when someone put in a new cd player a while back. I was trying to clean up some wires so the interior wouldn't look so ghetto and found that a couple wires seemed loose. I looked under the hood and found these:

Should the green one go to neg or pos? Thanks for the help guys *Editing was to fix the links to the pics* This post has been edited by dabazied: Nov 11, 2007 - 1:30 PM -------------------- |

Sounds like a fuse, but could be something like the dimmer switch is bad or wires could be cut. That maybe something to look at and I hope you fiqure it out.
