Sunday morning as I was pulling out of the driveway I noticed a flash under the dash, then i realized the gauge lights were out.
Worked on it last night and put in what is labeled as an 8 amp fuse (from Amazon) Turned lights on and after a minute or two it melts the fuse. Tried it again tonight and same thing. I was under the center console recently getting my blower motor control lever to make the fan work (turned out to be fuse in engine compartment) I don't think i disturbed anything under there. Any thoughts on what else to look for? Attached thumbnail(s)

Checked the headlight rheostat, didn't seem to be an issue there.
So I moved on to pulling out the gauges as i had recently been trying to get the high beam indicator working. I don't know if there a was loose or weak connection on the light or if something else got moved but i put it all back together and it seems like the issue is gone. |
