I was recently trying to connect some neon lights under the dash. So I hot wired one to the cigarrette light and the other to a piece of metal. When I did that my gauge lights gear lights and tail lights quit working. I replaced the tail light fuse and now they work. I checked all the other fuses but they are all good... So what is wrong with my gauge and gear lights??

Hmm... I think it's the dim control light switch.. any thoughts?

OK it was my dash light dimmer switch.. I stripped one from a junk yard and it costed me 4 bucks, so now everything is good!
