#105318, "Instrutment cluster lights went out."
Jul-19-11 06:12 PM by dalesmitsu



          

My dash lights went out Monday evening before dark.

Today, popped the hood searched for a blown fuse. I'm abit confused my 98 rs fuse cover doesn't show Fuse or ampage for the gauge cluster.

I called autozone, person told me its either a 15amp or 10amp and its on the passenger side. Told him thanks then went to look, pull each one all are good. But, I bought some atc 15 amp blade fuse box of 25 in case I need them later on.

As I menioned above still confused where this fuse located.

My ash tray works but the gauge cluster, cigerette light and accerory lights dont work either.

Only, thing I did was I hooked up my aftermarket radio harness to the factory harness. I harness from walmart the scosche brand.

I did unhook the harness and now gauge lights dont work. It did before.

Can someone help me out where this fuse is located at.

All of your interior lights run through the headlight stalk. If you wiggle mine just right, all the lights will go out including brake lights.

Id check there.

There is no fuse box on the passenger side of the car. Did you check the fuse box under the dash?

Thanks for quick response to my first set of questions.

Now for my second question. I have to replace my drivers door due to massive dent under the mirror. When I was at pullapart they have my cars twin only difference its 5speed and has power windows.

The doors are rust free, solid no dents same color as mine but they have no glass in them.
The door has no paneling or glass. But it has the wiring for power locks/windows, also has handle on it.

How do I convert the power doors back to manuel and install the glass.

But, if possible I would like to have manuel windows and power locks.
I noticed in my fuse box under the hood its missing fuse for power windows and power locks, since my car is a RS model.

EDIT - you mean convert manual to power, right?

You will need all the door components (this includes the electrical switch, interior panel, motor mechanism, and in-door harness), the fuse, as well as the relays. IIRC, there is a relay underneath the stereo, and another one near the steering column/inside fuse box area. If you are near the clutch pedal looking up, you'll see a white box with spots for a relay. Remove the relays from the donor car, don't forget or you're stuck!

Nope, Power back to stock roll up. My rs has manuel windows and the donor car I at yard has power but has no glass or paneling installed. Only, thing on this donor door is motor mechanism,door handle, plastic door lining and has the wiring switch for the power just hanging.

The door itself is ready to be pulled off. I would have swap my parts from my door over to this good one.

Has anyone removed the window from a door and installed it on to another one.

I would like to keep the manuel save on weight but later on add the factory power locks only because I thought about installing an alarm.

As, for my No dash guage light problem.

I found the fuse panel under the driver's side dash on the floor. Pulled every fuse, all are still good. On the front doesnt say which is the gauge lights ??

Only thing, I think the problem would be is the battery I'm using. Didn't thinking about until tonight, I picked up an used battery from pullapart to get me by. Well, it was abit taller and the posts are towards the aircleaner not to the stock location(strut tower) but positive-negative top post are.
The positive cable could be hitting the hood?? and it loosend the accessory cable that connects to the positive cable.
I also, tried the dimmer on dash, tapped it a few times nothing and wiggle the switch on console still nothing.

Hopefully, this problem will be solved with a new battery replacement.
