I was installing the "PAC IC-AV IPOD AUDIO/VIDEO/CHARGE CABLE AV" last night, when I tried to put everything back, i connected the wrong plug between the clock and emergency light. And now, my console light is not on and I cant adjust the headlight's height by using the thing that beside the steering wheel. Also my angel eye cant be lighed either, my angel eye is connected to my dtrl. When my headlight is on, the dtrl went off. MY outer tail light is not on at night either. I checked the the fuses which are beside battery and the driver seat, all of them are working properly. I think the problem is that the night mod signal is broken.... bec those devices are still working, just the light cant not be on.

Does anyone know what's going on?? or know how to fix it??
Hope someone has the same problem as mine and the problem has been fixed.
thanks
 
I have the same problem as you. This came due to an Inverter blowing out for my Angel Eyes.

The Interior lights, DTRL and rear lights don't turn on.

I did the same troubleshooting as you did with no results. I have to take it to the Dealership to get it fix. It might be that you burned out an electrical wire. Before you take your FX in TAKE OFF ALL OF YOUR ELECTRICAL MODS...

I REPEAT: TEKE OFF ALL OF YOUR ELECTRICAL MODS....

This way you can tell them that sudenly the lights did not work. I have been driving like this for 5 months and I finally have the opportunity to take my FX in for repairs... I just hope that the warranty covers it..If no... wow.. another expense..

When I had my audio set up done the center console lights did not work either. It was a blown fuse located in the fuse box behind the battery.

Yes, its the fuse box that is way BEHIND the battery and not readily visible unless you remove the lower part of the front windshield trim. It has a black cylinder like cover and you can only remove it by lifting it up.
 
I checked it. The body Shop Checked it and an ELECTRICAL GUY CHECKED IT.BLOWN WIRE. I ASSUME. I will take it in for repair this next week. I have to get everything working before I trade the fx in =o(
 
so i am having a similar issue. my tail lights work fine, but my dtrls, my front and rear marker lights, and my radio, climate control, and shifter lights are all out. i found the blown fuse in the compartment in the battery box, replaced it, and blew it again instantly. this all came about as a result of my recent aftermarket radio install in the clock location. if anyone can help me as far as where to start looking, and how to avoid this happening in the future, i would GREATLY appreciate it.

I used the factory radio 12V and accessory wires to run the aftermaket HU.

Upgrade that fuse to a 15 or 20 from the stock 10 and you will be fine.
 
It's just an overload on the fuse from the added current. I had the same problem when the alpine 310 was added so I upped the blown fuse and it has not happened again. Same thing when I added the HID fog light kit. Did you added anything more to the system then the just the alpine head unit? If not, then once the head unit is removed and it is back to stock then everything should be fine.
 
i would just be nervous that the wiring on that circuit couldn't handle the extra current, so adding a bigger fuse would only burn out a wire somewhere else down the line. wouldn't the radio's extra current blow the fuse that the radio is attached too? as far as i know i didnt even touch the tail light circuit, so why is that the one to go?
