I have no idea were the problem is, so I was hoping some of you guys would have some insite. My gauge cluster is not lighting up and the tail lights are also out. I keep on blowing 10amp tail light fuses under the hood. My tail lights still light up when I hit the brakes or use my turn signals. I put a 30amp fuse in and the cluster and the tail lights lit up just a little bit. I can not find any other blown fuses or grounded exposes wires so I have no idea if it is something incredible simple but who knows.

I had something like this happen before and it ended up being a wire that came loose and was touching the alternator and shorting everything out... the wire ended up fusing to the alternator and shorting it out too.
Probably not too likely that this is what is happening with your car..... i'm curious to see if it is the tach wire -------------------- Bowen Michael Anderson 4/22/05
