Re: Gauge lights not working after CD player and amp wires ran
could be an over load or a short in your wiring.

Re: Gauge lights not working after CD player and amp wires ran
So...come to find out for whatever reason...its my Pioneer CD player causing the fuse to pop. I removed it and unplugged it and put the fuse in and the gauge and HVAC lit up like a Christmas tree. So I'm not sure exactly what the problem is now lol. Least I figured that one out.

You should leave electronics installations to professionals.

You gonna pay the $150 for me to take it to a "professional" I was asking for troubleshooting tips not smart remarks.

Re: Gauge lights not working after CD player and amp wires ran
check the wiring harness to make sure all the wires match up to the corresponding functional wire on the truck side to make sure you don't have a wire going to the wrong place could cause it to blow a fuse

It's worth it if you don't know what you're doing and you get to support your local retailers.
