OK, here's the deal. I have this 1984 Camaro. I think it might be a Berlinetta, since it has all the extra toys. I seem to have a problem with my dash.
When ever I turn on my headlights, the entire dash dies.
No Gauges, no lights, nothing. The only thing working is my speedo.
Any one have any ideas where to start??
Any help would be appreciated.

 

it sounds like it could be a bad ground... double check all the wires if you get a chance

 

Your Light Module is fried......... And needs to be replace.


The "duimmer" circuit is burnt out and when the headlights (or park lights) are turned on the current should run through that circuit; but it's not - so there's no backlighting anywhere on the dash housing or center console.
