Help! Dash Has No Lights!


Recommended Posts

My gs300 died in the middle of the road while driving. I tried to jump the car a few times but it wouldn't work. after i had it checked out at Midas, they told me the only problem was the dead battery and the dash light is gone.

Please help me and tell me what might cause this problem. Here's an unusual thing that happened while the car was dead: the "Relay and Fuse" box in the front started to click when I tried to turn the car "on", not "start engine".

thanks a lot.

Something similar happened to me. My battery didn't die or anything, but my dash lights died all of a sudden. I was pretty upset considering that I was already taking my car to my mech the next day. It turned out that a fuse blew. My mech replace it and it blew again. The pully on my A/C compressor was wobbling because the shaft went bad. Well my mech had a parts car that he got a compressor from. After he replaced it and put another fuse in stabilized and has been fine ever since. I'm guessing that you checked the fuse already?

Do you remember what fuse it was so I can attempt to check it?

I also seek some help in locating the fuse that needs to be changed, in order to get my dash lights back on

did u check your owners manual to see which one controls the gauges? and then did you check which of the 3 fuse boxes its in?
