Interior Blinkers & Brights.

.... They won't shut off..
I just replaced some fuses with the correct voltage.. Except one source says 30 and another 35.. So i put 30's in for PWR ACC and the one below it.

Anyways, Once i replaced them they won't shut off, before it was just when I had the ignition set to on.. Now its all the time..

Also, my electric door locks work now, but do not lock fully.. Anyone got any ideas? thanks.

Also #2, other than blinkers and brights I do not have dash lights.. :S.. And the bulbs are good..

The brights & interior lights stay on? Make sure the headlight switch is off & intetior Dim light switch is off.

Yeah.. 2 Green arrows .. And the brights thing.. Its just those 3 lights.. None other in the cluster.. Uhh.. Dimmer should adjust by turning the headlight switch right? Cause that just turns and turns and turns

Yes the head light switch should turn left to turn it off. Your switch is bad if it keeps turning, double check the blinker bulbs front & back, it maybe on backwards or the filiments are stuck together.

Take out the fuses & wait about ten minutes before removing the bulbs. Once you get them out, flick them alil to see if the filement is broken & make sure they are the correct bulbs also.

Re: Interior Blinkers & Brights.

I fixed it.. !.. Not so sure on the dash lights though because its not even close to dark.. Anyways.. I found my old '70 Buick Skylark headlight switch, was IDENTICAL to ours, and took the piece off that i was missing.. Although it took me about 45 minutes to fix it.. (if the metal part of our headlight switch came out it would be much easier).. !!!! Pretty excited.. The only light I have left to fix is the dash lights and freakin dome light(which i dont have)!!!!
