Re: Cluster not working
Its 2, blue plug and green plug
And i was trying to search what number my fuse is for cluster, but couldn't find anything, and i looked at the fuse box but nothing on any fuses looked black or blown, but the back lights still work. On the dash.

Re: Cluster not working
It does sound like a wiring issue. Silly question but presumably the plugs are around the correct way

Re: Cluster not working
The illumination is one single wire out of all the wires. If it worked prior to removing the black box there's either a damaged wire, or a blown fuse
For them not to work completely implies something is seriously wrong

Re: Cluster not working

Re: Cluster not working
Check fuse 11. It's a 5A
Take it out and take a picture

Re: Cluster not working
Does it have a 5 stamped into the top of it? The colour of that looks like a 7.5

Re: Cluster not working
Must be wiring if the fuse is intact. For arguments sake try swapping it with another 5A. Sometimes they blow and it's not obvious

Re: Cluster not working
When i replaced my fuse the gauges went crazy so is that blown? Because they moved.

Re: Cluster not working
No power must be passing. Double check your wiring again
