RCP Audio Posted October 20, 2011 Report Posted October 20, 2011 Hey, I recently brought a couple of 2 channel amps for my mid/highs and going to install a half decent front stage. I had my mids/tweeters wired to the HU so I asked my mate to cut them off and unroute the wired from the dash etc so I could run new cables to the boot. he decided to cut the ENTIRE BLOOODY stock wire harness!! I'm rather pissed but hey I cant go back in time now. So I just finished soldering it all back together, everything works except for the dash/panel lights(fan speed/temp selector etc) aren't working any more. I don't have any loose cables in the space where they were cut yet its not working, I've checked the fuse and its allgoods. Any ideas what it could be?! I'm still confused why the dash lights are going through the stereo wiring harness but who cares now. Any help would be appreciated. I will charge my camera up overnight and take pics tomorrow to help if you want them. Cheers Quote PSN: Rcp_soundz Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps. The higher the more amperage it pulls, this is what I look at. I'll stick a 300 amp fuse in a potato and sell it to you for $2k. 1991 Mazda 323VERY small build thread here: http://www.stevemead...23-small-build/
zxsonnyxz Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 I would recheck fuses, both in the car and under the hood.

blankskater08 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 I would recheck fuses, both in the car and under the hood. Exactly. There is a dimmer or illumination wire behind the radio (that dims the display) when the dash lights are on. There has to be a blown fuse somewhere man.

RCP Audio Posted October 22, 2011 Author Report Posted October 22, 2011 My flat mate has a fuse tester thing. Put the fuse in and if the light goes then its fine. I also put two new fuses in and no luck then ether. Quote PSN: Rcp_soundz Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps.

Ray Posted October 22, 2011 Report Posted October 22, 2011 You nor your "mate" should be working on a car. Take it to a pro before it gets worse Sounds like an easy fix now as long as you know what your doing, which you clearly do not.
