I have a 91 Mustang GT and last night the dash lights quit working, I replaced the fuse and they started to work again for about 5 min. and then quit working again. I checked the fuse again and it wasnt blown! Now I dont have tail lights, parklamps, cruse control, or dashlights. I know that there has to be something in that circuit, but i cant seem to find a wiring diagram that i can actually see. Also i wanna know if anybody else has had this problem? and what all could be wrong in the circuit?
thanks!

Check fuse 4.

If it has power on both sides, I'd check the terminals on the headlight switch itself.


Good luck.

Possible bad dash light dimmer switch. You'll need a multimeter or
DVM to measure the resistance of the dimmer as you move the thumbwheel.

The following is from a 93 model, maybe it will be close enough to be helpful.
