Well as I've posted before, my dash lights don't work on my car so I have one of those ghetto rigged cig lighter plug accent lights to see it or just use my cell phone for light. When i say the dash lights don't work, I mean the ones that light up the gagues, all blinker, check engine, low gas, air bag and all other lights work on the dash. Also the lights that are supposed to come on as a "backlight" on my temp control(for heat and ac) doesn't come on, but when I press the buttons, those light up. This all started happening when someone put in a new cd player a while back. I was trying to clean up some wires so the interior wouldn't look so ghetto and found that a couple wires seemed loose. I looked under the hood and found these:

Now, I know that the orange one should be hooked to the positive terminal since it has the little fuse connected to the wire, but I'm not sure about the green one and dont wanna mess anything up. Should the green one go to neg or pos?

Thanks for the help guys

Thanks for the pics lubu. I haven't had time yet to work on it but am going to check tomorrow.

It's not the fuses celicadude, I've checked/pulled every single one in the car. lol

Yeah, I have a dimmer switch for the light panels and was thinkin that could be a possible issue, but i think i'm gonna check the connections/wires first before blowin out 50 bucks for another dimmer switch/knob lol.

Silent, I've changed out every bulb that I saw connected to the gauge panel lol.... that and the fuses were the first thing i did. I haven't gotten mad enough/frustrated enough to start jiggling the wires back there yet, but they are all hooked up back there lol.

Thanks so far for everyone's help/ideas on this work in progress lol.
