I just got done wiring in all new gauges. Lights DID NOT work before. I traced all the power and ground wires to a black box, approx 2"x3" with a auto spade type fuse in it. I bypassed the dimmer knob...connected the black to the ground bus under the dash and connected the yellow and green together.
Lights would flicker when I turned on the NAV lights. I noticed the connectors holding the spade fuse was loose. I found one was broken. I bypassed the fuse just to see if that was the problem...after about 10 minutes...all of a sudden I had lights. Turned everything off, waited a min, turned on, NOTHING. :smt021. I have a Blue-Green-Yellow-Black wired going in. Then a thicker gauge red that was connected to the fuse. They are set in an epoxy type bed, I cant access. I am thinking this box is the culprit, I THINK. Does anyone know how this box is wired so I can bypass, tie in the correct wires and add my own fuse. Everything else on the panel works perfect without the box connected, switches and gauges, just no lights. ANY ANY ideas or suggestions are appreciated.
No part numbers or anything on it.
