My dash light has been out ever since I installed the Haltech. Its the one controlled by the dimmer switch. I made sure the switch was plugged in good, don't think thats the problem. Anybody know where the fuse for the light is, or any suggestions?

I guess all of them in the since I can't see any of my gauges, speedo tach etc..., at night. Its the lights that are controlled by the dimmer switch, to the right of the steering wheel. Also when I turn the headlights on the odometer goes dim. Im going to check the dimmer switch again tomorrow.

There is a fuse in the fuse box, mine was 2nd row down, 3 over I think. Best to just check them all. I am not sure if you car is the same as my FD, there are alot of little differences. I will look when I get off work.

Do you mean the fuse box in the driverside floorboard or one of the boxes under the hood?

Thanks

BTW, people with the Haltech. Could it be a ground that ran to the stock ecu that I need to find and hook up?

also check to see if your tail lights are out, and all corner markers.thats what did my entire dash lights. the fuse for the INTERIOR lights is marked fuse for "tail lights" it doesnt make sense but thats the fuse by your footrest.

its on the bottom 2nd from the end on the left i believe.
