Another cool little problem
« on: January 18 2006, 11:58:59 AM »
So I churped the tires the other day and I noticed my tac and boost gauge went south.... super...  

Then I get into my car last night and realize my whole dash has gone out... the aftermarket gauges are not lit up and none of the stock dash light works.... But the idiot lights work...

BUT if I turn my lights of my stock tac and boost gauge work... nothing else and only when the lights are off....

I guess thats what I'm fixing all day today..

FUN STUFF :jerkit;

I have a feeling I'm never gonna be able to track this down....   I forgot to add... that the aftermarket gauges work just dont light up like they should...

Were they running thru the dimmer switch?  I've done that before, I hit the dimmer and later when dark I thought the dash crapped out.

Done both, dimmer switch and the switch burned out. I was using an NOS arm switch for a light switch until I got a new junkyard one. 5 bones, I bought 2.

hmmm that is a good point....

I think you guys are onto it.  I use the twilight sentinal...  and I know I have some "extra wires" running right up there.   I have so many guages ( two I want to get rid of) and Brian is getting the pod...  

I'm going to check it out tomorrow

After hearing about the GN that went for around $34K at Barrett Jackson you should be holding your head up and keeping at it.

It'll be an even bigger kick in the ass, if the fool who spent
all the money for the GN at Barret Jackson has the same problems we do.  :rofl;
