I'm pretty sure this is directly correlated to my ghetto rigging done for the power lumbar for my new seats. . . but all of my interior lights have gone out. I checked a few fuses, but nothing seems to be blown . . . any ideas?

 

It is probably the ACC fuse. That would do it. Does the radio memory work? Or the horn? These are all affected by it too.

 

Everything effected that I can recall:

dash lights (not including turn signals and warning lights)

console lights (shifter plate, HVAC)

interior dome light

radio memory

. . . and I THINK the cigarette lighter

Is the ACC one labeled or is it one of the big silver ones?

 

That was it man. Thanks. Now I've just got to figure out how to hook up my power lumbar w/o blowing more fuses. Maybe an inline fuse will do the trick. . .

 

ok guys, i have a similar problem.. my dome light and cigg lighter works but none fo my gauge lights or console lights work. I had this problem b4 and i changed a fuse, not the ACC but a diff one. now the lights worked for a couple days and then it happend again. I tried and replaced the same one again but now that didnt work.. any ideas??? i hate driving in the dark.

Actually, replacing the ACC fuse and the ISTR fuse brought back the dome light, cig lighter and remote hatch release, but the dash lights and the console lights still don't come on. I've checked all the fuses and they're good. The lightswitch still turns on the dome light when turned all the way to the right, so I don't think the switch is dead. . . . I'm stumped guys.

 

OK boys, after tearing apart the console I found an exposed wire coming from the radio that was touching the floor pan causing a short that kept blowing the INST (5) fuse. Fixed the exposed wire, and now the lights all work, but I think the short fried the radio's antenna.

 

ive had this problem on my car for the last 4yrs. the car isnt driven but at the track so i havent cared so much but now i want to fix it. ive thought it was the headlight switch but after playing with it im not so sure anymore. i remember from when this prob first started that there was a fuse that once would have power when the lights where on and since this started this fuse no longer shows power ever.(i just went and looked at it and it is the inst lamp fuse ) someone please help what should i check next???

 

any suggestions at all???

 

I had a similar problem i blew 5 fuses before one of my buddy's on njfboa.org said to check the cig lighter and i had come to find out that it was all of the way in and it never poped out.
