I turned my car on after work last night and my odometer/spedometer and a/c controls didnt light up...i have alot of electrical **** in my car so i figured i just blew a fuse...i looked at the interior fuse box and the one under the hood and cant find any blown fuses or anything labeled map lights?

anyone know where its at?

Its def on in the passenger side kick panel fuse box. I dont remember the specific number. I wanna say it says Interior light on one of the fuse descriptions

yea i checked that, it was fine but i think that only controls the dome light

You're talking about the lights in the mirror right? That's on the #27 fuse inside the car, it's labeled interior lights. Controls the lights in the mirror, a dome light, the light on the shifter if its auto, etc. basically all the lights in the interior except the ones on the steering wheel, that's separate. Does your gauge cluster and hvac controls still work? if not, you blew the fuses for those, which are seperate. Try checking the steering wheel illumination fuse too, that could possibly work those, but I don't think so. It's #28

sorry im retarded, the lights i have out are the spedo/rpm/fuel gauge, and the a/c controls


i always thought they were called MAP lights but I guess not.

You need a test light to see if the dimmer switch is working. Could be the switch or the BCM.

brickloaf

is it possible that the bcm fuse is just blown? i have no idea what the bcm is but ive seen it in the fuse box diagram

ChevyMgr

No. If the BCM had no power you wouldn't be starting.

Brick, check your tail lights.

The fuse for the cluster lights gets it's power from the fuse for the tails so if the fuse for the tails blows the cluster lights go out too - lets you know there is a problem since you can't see the back of your car while driving.

Believe it is labled PRK LMP.
