My dashlights on my 2005 Pontiac Grand Am have gone out, and I can't find the

[mr_x_63]

reason why? I have checked three different fuse boxes, and all fuses look good to me. I have checked them with an ohm meter to make sure. This all happened when I changed my radio out. Is there a fuseable link somewhere that I could fix, or should I take it back to the dealer and pay them to fix it.

Step on the brake pedal and see if the rear brake light work if they don't then you have a blown fuse if they do then you likely have a blown instrument panel (I hope its the fuse) Good Luck and God Bless

i have seen this happen before, people would accidentally hook the dash light wire to the radio and when the lights was turned on they wouldn't light up the dash,instead power the radio,that will knock the instrument lights out,what you might need to do is unhook the stereo and see if they will work them and if they do then you know its wired wrong,other wise any good electrical shop can also repair this and save you from going and paying a dealer to do this,it wont be part of the warranty on this one,good luck.

If your brake lights don't work either then you probably need a headlight switch. They wired it so the power source for the two are connected.
