As I was doing my clutch pedal swap, I decided to put in the 140mph gauge cluster I bought while I had the dash apart to move the speedo cable...
Anyway, I hooked everything back up and when I turned the key, the gauge cluster lights that show the seatbelt symbol, etc. lit up so it's getting power.
I try the headlights and on the first click (where the amber lights should turn on) they do not turn on, nor does any of the panel lighting for the gauge cluster and hvac controls, and the brake lights did not turn on (and yes I had the panel dimmer on all the way) When I press the brake pedal, the brake lights light up though so they're working. On the last click with the headlight switch, the headlights do turn on but the amber lights still do not nor does any of the interior lighting or the tailights...
What could of gotten ****ed up to prevent all of this from working?
let me know thanks

Did you check fuse 4?

Did any wires pop out of the back of the headlight switch?

Good luck.
