SOURCE: 1995 ford escort ... fuse diagram

Funny story: I had a similar problem until one day, on the way to work, the fuse blew and the dash just wouldn't light up at all. That's when I found out that the dash light fuse is the same fuse that protects the tail lights. It was too dark to drive without tail lights so I replaced the 15 amp fuse with a 20. It blew too. In desperation, I used a 25 amp fuse (stupid!). Back on the road and five minutes later, I smelled burning electrical wires. By the time I found a safe place to pull over the damage was done... but at least it made it easier for me to notice the problem. I waited for dawn.

In the light, I started tracing the problem. This time I started at the back instead of under the dash. I opened the hatch (it's a wagon) and saw it right away. The wire bundle that feeds the rear door had become quite chewed up from opening and closing for 13 years. I had to cut and splice at least a dozen wires and re-insulate them. Everything was fine after that, even my centre brake light(that hadn't been working for YEARS). I only wish I had checked this BEFORE I threw in that 25 amp fuse. Since everything was shorting out in the tailgate, it really heated up some wires under the dash too. Now my power locks don't work. And I blew all but one of the lights in my dash. Now I HAVE to take the dash out to replace those lights. Argh.

So. Check the fuse (I think it's labeled TAIL LIGHT). But REALLY check that wire cluster to the rear door.

SOURCE: 97 Ford E250 Running lights and dash lights not working

best bet is get a WIRING DIAGRAM. you should have current (12 volts) on both sides of the fuse that works the tailights.if not there is probably a broken wire or a shorted wire leading up to the fuse. you kinda need the wiring diagram so u can see in which order the current "flows" which will help point u in the right direction.

2003 Ford F-250. I have the diagram for the fuse panel but I still can't figure out which god danm fuse controls my dash lights and which friken fuse is my tail lights.

F17 exterior lights. Check that. If that's good check voltage to your rear lights aslso f35 and f41 for your instrument cluster but if your instrument cluster is working but not your instrument cluster lights I would assume your cluster lis just bad unless you have an adjustable dimming switch for your cluster which is usually the one the headlight switch. You can take out the switch and see if you have voltage coming out of the dimmer circuit to your cluster

1995 ford taurs dash lights will not come on why not?

The dash lights have their own 5 amp fuse. The power for this fuse comes through the fuse for the tail lamps. This is done so that if the fuse for the tail lamps blows, the driver will know because the dash lamps go out and when he checks the dash lamp fuse, it will be good, but there will be no power going to it. Most common issue though, is that someone accidentally turned the dimmer switch for the dash lamps completely down. Check that first.

Why did my parking lights and all dash lights quit 95 mustang

Most likely reason is that the tail light fuse blew out. The dash lights have a seperate fuse, but it is wired in series with the tail lights, so that if the tail light fuse blows, the instrument cluster lights also go out. The dash lights going out is sort of a warning to let you know to check your tail lights

I have a 2004 ford freestar the dash light light came on for the master light switch now i have no lights at all is this just a fuse.

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome. Try changing your dash fuse. It may be marked as dash cluster. This fuse controls all the lights on the dash. Use your fuse box diagram to find the exact location of the fuse. If you have a question, just let me know.

Hello i have a 1995 ford mustang gt and i need a diagram for the electricle cluster that sits in the dash board that controlls the hd lights, tail lights, break lights etc thank you

im not sure what your talking about, it sounds like you want the wiring for the cluster, but this doesnt control brake,tail or headlights, the brake lights operate through the brake light switch and go through the signal light switch to power those up. the headlights and tail lights work through the head light switch, what system do you need, or what doesnt work.
