hey guys,

Some might remember me from the furry interior thread but now i finally switched out my crappy dash for a nice 93 cx manual one. The problem is now my interior lights on the gauges and the heater stuff doesn't work, i have no horn and my SRS light is constantly on. I remember when taking the old one out and putting the new one in that there seemed to be a connector missing. I did check and the my DX auto dash had 4 connectors that went into the under dash fuse box. The cx manual one only had three. I didn't look to see if i missed it but not luck. Heres a pic that i believe is the culprit. Let me know what you guys think. I'm think i need to switch out the whole harness from the old dash to this one or i could be wrong.

 

dont know anything about that...sorry

i just checked my fusebox in my CX Hatch...and i DONT have any harness connected to the one you circled....but i do have harness connected to the longer one thats on the right of the one you circled...its a white connector clip...

 

yea im not sure but im gonna plug in my other dash today to see if everything work and if it does im gonna try to pull the harness out of that on into the other, think that should work?

 

ok so i was looking and some stuff today and i noticed that the DX dash deff has another connector in the dash harness and there is another plug on the cluster. I got two pics to show you what i mean. the one empty pluf in on the car now but ther CX dashboard doesnt have a plug for it and i even looked in the CX car and there no plug like that at all. So see what you guys can make out of this. thanks

 

Another update here, found out that those plugs are only for the auto gear indicator thing in the auto cluster, i dont think that would have any kind of effect but im still tracing wires to see where this stuff goes. any help just through it out there.

 

bumppppp

 

ok new development today, i have a original civic radio in my car, when i turned off my car to go to the bank and came back turned the car on and the radio was asking for a "code". usually that only happens when power is completely lost to the radio, tried it couple more times and sure enough it kept asking for a code after it was turned off. Let me know if anyone has any ideas.

dude, there's obviously a wire problem going on...if your car worked fine before doing the dash swap, then that means you didnt connect something correctly or missed a plug that has to be pluged...if your missing a harness for your new dash, then you should of just got it from your old one....go over you wiring all over again...

 

Another thing is that there is a relay clicking under my dash, hadn't have enough time to find which one is make that noise but thought id through that out there to see if that helps

 

bumppppppp

 

why did you remove the fuse box to get outt the dash.

 

i didnt its from the parts car, post if you have info thanks

 

haha!!! figured it out tonight, it was my dimmer switch! Change it out with the on that i used to have in there and bam! lights came right on. Man i am soo happy about that. Now my only other concern is that the stock honda radio keeps losing power because every time i turn my car off and back on the radio asks for a code. May be the memory power. Anyone have a radio wiring diagram. let me know

 

It's the ignition power... you should able to found the diagram on yahoooo

 

for the radio asking for a code try checking the under hood fuse box for the bck up fuse... mine was bad and the radio kept asking for a code

 

wouldnt it be 12v constant because that keeps power there all the time not ignition
