okay, here goes , since i got the car the dash or interior lights have NEVER worked. (besides the door lights and the upper lights near the rear view mirror and the sunroof control) well, ok some owner of the car has done a really fucked up job of wireing a sound system in , all sorts of wires just twisted together... cut wireing harnesses.. i chopped all that **** out and whats left is a cut wireing harness and what i beilive is 2 wires that have somthing to do with the ciggarete lighter (the cig fuse keeps blowing ) heres some pics



black wire is live red isnt





live wires are covered with red tape in this picture (red blue and blue white)

 

I'm going with Pic 1 being your glovebox.

Picture 1: The red/green and black wire is for your glovebox light switch.



Picture 2: I think this should help (from the FAQ).

What are the wire colors for adding aftermarket radio
LTBlue/Red= 12v+
LtBlue/White= +Accessory
LtBlue/Yellow= -power ant trigger
Red/Black=+ Lumination
White=Factory Amp Turn on

Ground to the body, use the 10mm bolt behind the center console front drivers access panel. Do not use the Red/Black as ground it will damage the interior light circuit and dimmer in the car

Front Speakers (maximum of a 15 watt peak from the radio):
LtGreen/Red= Left
LtGreen/Black= Left

LtGreen= Right
LtGreen/Yellow=Right

Rear Speakers (if applicable, if you have the amplified rear speakers again the Maximum of 15 watts peak is all the stock speaker amp input can handle):
Brown= Left rear
Brown/White= Left Rear

LtBlue= Right Rear
LtBlue/Orange=Right Rear

 

First, check all fuses under the dash.

I had this problem due to my own shoddy wiring job of some aftermarket gauges. A wire came loose and burned out my headlight switch. Check the red/green wire (i'm pretty sure that's the color) that goes to illuminate the cigarette lighter etc. Make sure that's not shorted anywhere.

Pull your gauge cluster surround but keep the headlight switch plugged in. Turn the parking lights on and backprobe the red/green wire on the switch (use a multimeter and twist a paperclip around the red probe, then use the end of the paperclip to backprobe the connector).

If you don't have voltage on the red/green wire then your switch fried due to a short at some point. I'd bet money on it--I just went through this a month ago. Make sure you have voltage on the white/green wire too-- that's the source of the juice. If you don't have voltage on the white/green you have a blown fuse.

 

thanks for the replys ! that helped me ALOT!, the wiring diagram in the hanes manual sucks , this ones easyer to decipher, ill do all those things tomorow and see if it fixes it!
