light problem! help please :)

Post by franckybosnie »

Hi guys , im new in this forum . I got a Daewoo Lanos SX 1999 . 5 days ago ,I had a problem , at the same time , my dome light , dash light (all of them , so at the night , I can't see the dashboard) and the back light stopped working . The brake lights and the back up light are still working , but the rear side markers doesnt work anymore . So far , I can't drive at the night with this problem . I checked the switch of the light , and the switch is working , and all the fuses are ok (interiors ans under the hood ) .

I tried to follow the wire but it's pretty hard .

Somebody know what could be the problem ? And how I can fix it ? I don't know if there is a relay for those lamps . Any help would be very apreciate ! Thanks

anyone know if you don't have a stereo hooked up and your wires aren't attacked to anything if this could cause the insturment cluster to go out?

I have no lights in my dash either, my door ajar light no longer works, and all of the HVAC controls don't light up(except for the defrost and a/c button)

I do have blinkers, CEL, Gas light, Emergency Brake, and Brights Indicator still working just fine though.

I will try to follow this diagram to see if I can track down the culprit wire possibly.

Thanks and GOOD FIND!

The pics won't load or show all the way for me.
I only get to see about 1/4 of the top of the image.
Perhaps it is because I am on dialup and it goes so slowly the images time out.
