Everytime I put in a new 7.5 and try driving with my backlights on, they don't work. So I tried turning down my dimmer and then back up to the highest brightness and the fuse just reblows. It is the 7.5 at the top lefthand corner that controls the gauge/climate control lighting. I've changed out the dimmer switch on mine, but haven't had a lot of time/patience to trace those wires to find my problem yet. For yours try unhooking the cig lighter and placing in a new 7.5 fuse and see if it'll work then, if not you got some searching to do to find out what is shorting/grounding out. For the cig lighter lighting, I currently use those bendable lights that are half blue half green. They are bright enough for you to read your gauges but not so bright that they blind you. Got mine at walmart for like 15 bucks and routed the wires through the dash and popped the cig part out right where my cig lighter is. I'll post up pics of the lights i'm using when i get a chance though. Good luck on resolving your issue though. -------------------- |
