94 vr Dash Lights and Parkers

[pms74]

As per everybody esle have now got the same problem.
Have had no auto shifter light for ages but the dash cluster and rest were fine untill i decided to see why yesterday.
I put a test light into the auto shifter light socket to see if i had power and i heard the fuse blow from the fuse box under the steering.
Yep it blew the 5 amp one so replaced it now have no dash lights at all no parkers and no tail lights.
I took the 5 amp fuse out and put the test light on that and found i have no power going to that fuse.
Would it be a relay or something causing loss of power to the fuse?
need help c
cheers

I blew mine when i was fiddling with shit. Replaced the fuse, all good. Never heard of the problem before untill now. But id say safe to say its the wiring.

I dont have any light for my speedo, rev counter, fuel gauge and temp gauge, or my auto shifter.

I replaced four bulbs the other day on the dash unit, that looked faulty, but still no dash lights.

My trip computer has lights


I have checked all the fuses under the steering wheel, where next?

Swap out Fuse No1 just incase it dodgy. If you have had the cluster out and plug No 3 came out - it could be up side down in the dash.

Its all good, i found number 16 fuse to be blown, now my dash lights are working again, whoo hoo.

I didnt check the bottom three across fuses months ago, as like the older cars there use to be three "spare" fuses along the bottom.
