Message So I took all day yesterday messing with fuses and plugs to get my headlights, interior lights and brake lights working. At the end of the day everything worked besides my gear selection light, ignition illumination light, cigarette lighter light and my dome light. Everything else was functional. I also fixed my clock by splicing 2 wires together (my yellow, blue and black/red wires were cut from the connector, blue+yellow made the clock work black/red+blue made my antenna work so blue must be a 12v currant). I then went inside and once I got to thinking I realized that the clock should be controlled on ignition with a head unit. I didn't want to run my battery down so I went outside to disconnect the wiring. As I was doing this the dash lights stuck on. I used the stalk to turn them off. Problem is that up turned them off and when I turned my lights to the off position the dash lights came on. When I went to turn my lights to the on position again the dash lights wouldn't come on no matter which way I would turn the stalk...so I'm confused..everything else is still in good order. I also replaced my theft fuse which fixed most of my interior lights yesterday. Which fuse circuit do the cluster lights operate on? My dimmer switch does nothing as well. I had a problem yesterday with the contact coming out of the bottom clearance illum fuse socket but I pushed it back in with a flathead and when I plugged it in it made my door ajar with headlights on sound started working so I don't think that's the problem. I would appreciate any help. I've tried to give as many details as I could so it would be awesome if someone could help me out. Ohh and here is a tip for people with brake light problems. Disconnect the green brake module in the hatch area and reconnect it loosely. That is working for me until I get a new one or find a tutorial to delete it. Thanks again guys.
