Hey guys, I have 2000 Honda Civic ex EJ8 I have notice if I turn the car lights on the gauges turn off. no rpm reading mph, fuel, or temp, but the turn signal works and other lights work ( brake, engine, seat belt etc) Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this to happen? Any help will be appreciated..

p.s
i will be posting some pictures or videos last about the subject..

 

Possibility it's a bad ground connection somewhere, could also be exposed wires touching something they shouldn't.

Need maor info.
First, does everything still work as intended after turning the lights off?
And you need to start your car, check battery voltage with lights off. Then flip them on and check again. Tell us what readings you get.

Double check all of your fuses, including under the hood. Honestly it's an "interesting" problem.

Hope you have luck with it.

 

so I found the problem the previous owner had caught unnecessary wire it was the only OEM wire there that was cut so once I fix that I fixed all my electrical issues that it was happening thank God it was a simple quick fix but thank you for your input on this situation...
