I just installed an aftermarket headunit into a 97 Acura 3.0 cl. The problem is I have no brake lights or dash lights. What did I wire wrong. Any help.
Here is the color code for the oem radio harness http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/HA-Wiring.pdf The one thing missing is the "Dash Light Dimmer Wire", [red/black] if you did not use it, [because aftermarket Hu didn't need it] make sure it is "capped off" so it can't short out, the dash lights are fused in the under dash fuse box, it may be one fuse for the dash lights and one for the park lights, [tail lights] or it may be one fuse for both, they will be constant power, but are switched by the "Combination Light Switch"
The brake lights are a diff. matter, they have their own power and fuse, [hot at all times, under hood fuse box] and should not share any wiring or fuses with the oem radio harness, maybe you just unplugged the brake peddle switch.
