dash light and marker light help

ok so heres my problem..

when i start my car, my aftermarket guage lights will do their warm up of the entire guage (defi) then turn off. They will still work giving me the readings but won't lights up. As for my dash lights, they won't light up at all and my marker lights as well as reverse and license plate lights won't come on at all either. Also my hud will not turn on at all because of this problem.

I have searched and have come up with the 240sx capacitor problem that affects many of these cars and wonder if that could be the case. I have heard that the lights sometimes turn on when the capacitor warms up but that has ever happened to me. But i haven't found any good instructions on what i have to do to try and fix that problem. Am i able to do anything then paying to have that capacitor fixed as i know they can be sent in.

which fuse are those lights connected with becuase my car is from japan so all fuses and labels are in japanese. Also i do not have a wiring diagram so i don't know what goes where.
If anyone can help me out at all with this problem it would be greatly apreciated.

thanks
chris
