Dash, Instrument Cluster Lights

I fired up the T4R this morning and noticed that the back lighting for my dash and instrument cluster was MIA. It's probably a fuse, but thought I would check with the forum to be sure.

Any thoughts? :eek:

Most possible that it is your fuse. Another thing to check is the dimmer switch just in case :arrow:
 
Bump for all the dummies like me. I had this same problem tonight. :bash:

I had installed some accessories this past weekend, messed up, and blew the fuse for the turn signals.

Tonight I drove my truck in the dark for the first time this week. The gauge cluster lights didn't work, nor did the HVAC and radio lights. Figuring I had somehow blown another fuse, I spent about 20 minutes searching for a problem before giving up and deciding to search T4R.org.

Duh. It was the dimmer switch that was accidently turned all the way down.:headslap:
 
Instrument Cluster Not Working Following Radio Install

Purchased an '03 Limited two days ago. Have been tuning it up before a cross-country trip back to school in two days.
Took apart the dash and installed my own radio. Radio works perfectly. Also painted dash with black truck bed liner. Looks awesome.

I put the dash all back together and turned on the car to find that the instrument cluster was not working. No lights, no odometer, no movement of the gauge hands.

Was there a wire cluster I did not connect again?

When I took the dash apart, I did not go past the instrument cluster.
All the lights work, the turn signals work, the radio works, etc. I checked fuses and spun the dash light. The problem is that the entire instrument cluster doesn't function.

I've attached an image. Let me know what y'all think!
