Default Running Light Problem

I drive a 1993 honda civic. My running lights have quit on me. Speedo, plate light, and all for corners. The head lights still work and so do turn signals. The cluster lights have been shorting out for a while, but I guess they finaly went. Any ideas would be nice cuz I don't want to get pulled over for no plate light and not knowing my speed.

Check all your fuses. Thats probably what the case is.

if one of my fuses blew wouldn't that be cuz of a problem. Could it be the blue LED lights I hardwired into the running lights.

If you used LEDS that aren't self-resisting .... then no wonder you're popping off fuses left and right.

I think they are self resisting and they have their own fuses.
