just had a problem with my lights on my s14 recently as well as my friend and was wondering how to fix the problem and if it was common amoung s14's. what works on my car is the headlights, brake lights when i brake, and reverse lights when i reverse. i was driving normal when my all my dash lights went off and all my parking lights went off. anybody know how to fix this problem?? lmk, thanks!

blew a fuse... did you change your radio recently or do anything to radio harness?

good place to start

iirc its an orange wire back there for stock ilum. people do radio, don't tape it up and it contacts metal. will instantly pop kick panel fuse, taking out your dash and parking lights

yeah its for illumination and most people dont use it with aftermarket hu's, it probably got shoved somewhere back there... guaranteed thats your problem
