I installed a new CD player tonight and now my instrument cluster lights are not working in my 2003 Explorer Limited. I think I screwed up by putting the dimmer wire and the illumination wire together. The CD player doesn't have a dimmer, so I think I should have just left it unhooked. I went ahead and cut the dimmer wire and just left the illumination wire hooked up.
Anyway, I checked fuse 21 in the panel which the owner's manual says is instrument cluster, compass and flasher coil, and it was not blown. I replaced it anyway and still no change. I even unplugged the entire radio connector just to make sure something else wasn't wrong but still no lights. It looks like the compass is not working either, but the flashers are working.
Anybody have any ideas??? Is there another fuse that I need to check?
TIA for your help!!!
