gauge illumination
I finally got my TA road worthy but none of the gauges light up at all, they all do work but can see them at night. I checked the fuse and all I saw was an arrow pointing at a single terminal with nothing there, any thoughts?

Re: gauge illumination
did you twist the light switch to see if they are dimmed?

Re: gauge illumination
the one slot spots are for expansion. its ment to stick a single male spade terminal in to power stuff. the ones marked illum only get power when the lights are on. there should be a fuse for gauges or illumination or courtesy lights. does the dome light, cigerette lighter, or power locks work? if they dont then check the acc fuse. i cant remember if the lights run off that fuse too or not.

Re: gauge illumination
there was another guy on here with that problem. turned out to by a short in his audible alarm (the thingy that makes noise when you put your keys in or leave your lights on after the keys removed). he also said he had a problem with his cruise control, but it doesn't seem to be tied into the circuit circled in green below.
