Well, my light switch went off last week and caused my dashlighs, tailights and side markers not to work anymore, I tried resoldering the switch but wasnt succesful, by checking the diagrams, you can tap into 2 wires and install a 12v switch.
1. Remove dash 2. Unplug the 4 connectors (2 on each side) 3. On the light switch connector, locate the White/Green and Blue/Red wires, and tap into them, install a switch in an appropriate location. Mine is install under my radio along with my fuel pump switch. 4.Re-plug the connectors 5. Put dash back in place |
did that fix it? If not, i know another thing that might have happend. It happend to me like 2 weeks ago.

I had the same thing happen befor .
I chanced my licence plate cover to a plain plastic one that no longer usedthe illum. lights above the plate. I left the wires that powered those lights just dangling behind the lic. plate Every now and then I'd blow the fuse-replace it and be fine for 2 min. to 2 days and then blow the fuse again. The two wires hanging behind the licence plate were shorting out across the back of the plate!!! Does this help?? |
hey winger, what kind of switch did you use? I dont really want to shell out around $300 for a replacement switch and wiring harness that will probably have the same problem again.
|
i used a regular switch from an electronic store.....be sure it can handle 12v...mine handles 120v.......any inline switch works great.....choose one that will fit nicely in the location you will put it.....
UPDATE: i just realized the dimmer still works with my switch.... |
Hey that's good info man. I"m going to try it tomorrow. my interior lights are out.
|
well i am having the same problem but, i changed out the wiring harness and also the headlight switch. and my tail lights still arent working. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png so i have ran out of ideas. so what do you think that i should do? oh also i hooked up a switch and the brake lights are always on when i turn the switch on now. thank.

that same thing happened to me, turns out the replacement switch i got was burned out too. There is a way to wire in a relay to keep this from happening again.
|
do tell. how can you wire the relay to make it quit burning out the switch. iam going to order another switch tonight but i am going to take out the cpu and check the cold solder points too. hell i am fixing to give up and take it to mazda so they can rape me. lol.
