Subject:Instrument cluster light issues
From:Thomas Casal <thomas.casal@GMAIL.COM>

Hey everybody,

The blue grey wire going from the light switch instrument cluster adjuster
to the blue grey wire that connects near the rear defroster switch and the
heater adjuster lights shorted out on me and melted damaging the blue grey
wire going to the instrument cluster as well. A mouse ate it on me.

So I finally got the 2.8mm open barrel connector to fix it so I wire
everything up and put an inline fuse near the switch 1.5 amp to protect it
so it doesn’t happen again. So now when I hook the ground up on the battery
bang the instrument cluster lights and hater panel lights go on and won’t
go off no matter what I do with the switch they are on. Wtf did I do?
