Issue with my interior/gauge lighting

[tercel02]

I just recently had a Pioneer double din stereo installed in my 2003 Solara. After the installation, I noticed that my interior lights no longer come on, signal lights dont work, the gauge lights dont work (I cant see how fast im driving!) and the clock on my dash no longer works. Any suggestions?

sounds like you blew a fuse.

Are you sure the installer or someone else hasn't just turned down the dash light dimmer? It's worth checking.

His signals should still work even with the dimmer off.

did they just splice it into that circuit, some lazy people do that shit.

Signal lights are separate from interior/dash lights so a simple blown fuse is not an answer. A return to the installer is in order. He/She seems to have left something disconnected within the dash. I would guess that connections were disconnected when the radio was installed; and even if that's not the case, everything worked before the installation. Obviously, something was done incorrectly during the installation. Good luck and let us know what you find. Hy
