Ok, guys... I have had an ongoing problem with my interior lights... here's the background...
Basically, I installed a set of gauges on my 93 LX auto. During the install, I used the dimmer switch connections for power and ground. The gauges came on fine and worked wonderfully. However, I noticed immediately that the interior lights (climate control, shifter position, and button lights) all stopped working. The radio lights still work, but that's obvious...
Since then, I have relocated the power to the fuse box in the driver's kick panel. However, since I'm such a smart guy, I clipped the harness from teh dimmer switch and threw it away So I thought, what the hell, we'll make our own harness... I hook the wires up to the switch and still, no lights.... I have checked all the necessary fuses and connections, and have verified that the dimmer relay is still functional.
Any ideas? I haven't cehcked that the dimmer switch is still working, but I'd have to assume that it is.... anyone had this problem before? I'm running out of options here
