I got teh swap done in my 91 crx si from a b16a to a B18B on monday. Gauges worked fine. I drove it yesterday. Gauges worked fine. I go to start it up this morning, non of the lights turn on except the battery light. Start it, and it runs fine. The tach, temp, gas, turn signals, cel, seatbelt, oil pressure, etc. DO NOT WORK NOW.

I have checked and rechecked the thermostat ground. CHecked every fuse in teh car. under the dash and hood. I dont know what else to do...Has anyone had this problem before? I dont have any time to mess with it tonight. I'm going out drinking in a lil bit. Any help is appreciated..

the same thing happened to me about 2 months back...turned out being the ground wire behind the cluster( its a single black wire grounded to the stering collumn...hope this helps...p.s. good luck witht the dirnking

Thanks man, I'll check that out right now.

I looked for a ground on the steering column, but couldnt find it. Got a pic or anythign of it?

I took the cluster out today and checked everything(plugs and back of cluster). It all looked good. I tapped on relays, pushed wires into plugs harder. Still no results. HEre's my list...

Works:[*]hazards[*]headlights and high beams[*]high beam light on cluster[*]radio[*]heater

DOES NOT WORK[*]oil pressure light[*]CEL[*]brake light[*]door ajar light[*]hatch ajar[*]seatbelt[*]turn signals[*]clock, unless I push the button for it[*]reverse lights

I'm completely at a loss. ??? This just happened for no reason at all. I wasnt even working on the car when it happened.

Bump!

Is there a relay or something that controls all of these things? Could it be that my cluster is fried? I have a 94 gsr cluster to put in if that is the case...

It sucks to drive with no turn signals or reverse lights. I can survuve without the other stuff, but I get paranoid about not having a temp gauge...

Bump for joo... since I need help with gauge clusters too.

Forgot to mention this is in my 91 si...This is so frustrating

I'll be damned, but I swear every fuse had power. Turns out that fuse #1 is the one that regulates power to the cluster. Big thanks to this thread for the diagram of the clips:
