I had my new backpressure guage temporarily hooked up to check the bulb color and blew something. I was powering from the ILLUM fuse and when I went to ground it..lights out. Now the instrument lights only work with the dome on. Anyone know what fuse I blew or what? I can't find anything.

It sounds like something is backfeeding.

I wish I could explain it better.

It seems that when the fuse blew something else happened and now the dome light is powering your other lights.

RE-Check all wires that you dissconnected or spliced and make sure it's all still good.Try to put everthing back to stock and see if the problem goes away.

Good Luck,

GMC

So far I can't find a blown fuse anywhere.

Light switch was bad. Dealer threw in a new one under warranty even though they knew I caused it somehow. Gotta love the small town dealership! No B.S. I hear so much about. As long as I am under 36,000mi. they will get it done.
