pdipon · 02-07-2010, 11:12 PM

Hey guys i have a problem with my interior lights. one day im driving to the mall, everythings woking fine. i go inside and when i come back out and start my car i noticed that my cluster lights are out. i automatically thought that is was a fuse and checked my rear tail lights to see if they went out.(usally when your clust lights go out so do your tail lights because of a blown fuse). well my tail lights were still on.i check all my fuses and they are all good. i read some where here about the multiplex control unit and thought that might be the problem. i changed that and still no lights. ANY ONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM?????????????????????????????????? i also checked my rellays and the power going to the speedometer and there is juice going to it.....PLEASE HELP any advice is greatly appreciated............THANKS

ok. i dont know exactly how to use a multimeter but is there power on the little circuit board for the bulbs? and, did you ever pull out your speedo unit? are you sure the little flaps for the circuit board are actually tucked in so the conenctors can make a solid contact? try a new bulb or make sure the connectors are receiving good contact, maybe the previous owner messed with it.
