hey guys i was fixing my dome lights and the sidemarker lights and the dash panel lights went out.. and i dont know how to fix it.. my first guess is its a fuse problem but i dont know where to look a lil help!!! PLZ!

 

dash panel? like all of the lights in your instrument panel? guages and such or?

 

ya like the power is there.. but there is no light.. when i turn on my headlight.. ya know how the panel light lights up.. it doesnt glow.. so i went under the hood, because i thought the fuse was messed up.. i found out that the 15 amp small bulb was busted.. soo i put a new one. and that one busted tooo fasst... soo i think its a electrical problem.. what u think??

 

i think you might want to check your dimmer switch

 

yea duh.. i know that.. lol.. but yeaa i tried everything.. i think i have to take it to the mechanics!!!

 

Probably a short in the dome light/sidemarker lights, check to see if any wires are exposed on those guys

 

how am i supposed to check that.. like check the fuse or open it up and check it?

 

I had this problem with my car. Dont waste your money on a mechanic. The dimmer switch on your dash, the little **** that dims your dash lights needs to be replaced. You shorted it out somehow. Just go look for one in the junk yard, or order one from the dealer and replace it. Should be pretty straight forward. Hope this helps.

Also check the work you did on the sidemarkers/dome light and make sure you didn't cross anything the wrong way. If its blowing a fuse, or light, it is overloading somehow.

 

nooo its not that tried a new one... its soo frustrating.. cant drive at night man!
