About a week ago I installed a keyless entry system and I had the entire dashboard taken out and when I put it all back together I noticed that the clock is completely dead, which is my first question: what fuse goes to the clock? A few days later I was messing around with some fuses trying to fix the clock, and now the backlight in my instrument cluster isn't working, as well as the chime that goes off when the headlights are on and the door is open. This is my other, much more prevalent question, is there a fuse that runs both the instrument backlight panel and the "headlight reminder" chime, or, if it doesn't sound like a fuse problem, what is going on and how can I fix it? To be clear, I did reattach everything correctly when I replaced the dashboard, and both the cluster backlight and the chime were working after I finished reassembly.

 

Multiplex computer on the driver side, it's about 50 bucks used on eBay and 100 bucks new

 

I figured out a way to get the dash backlight to work by bypassing the dimmer switch, but what else does that control that I just haven't noticed isn't working yet?

 

look in the hood and inspect the radio fuse should be the 7.5 one sounds like you blew a fuse when doing the alarm did you remove the negative battery cable when doing anything electrical?

 

If the dimmer switch is busted then you should replace it. AFAIK it only deals with the cluster.

 

I meant what else does the multiplex computer control, and yes, I've always disconnected the negative terminal.
