Hello, I have an 1996 Acura TL 2.5. To make a long story short, my speedometer, dome light, front parking lights and rear parking light (dimmed brake lights) do not work. I've tried changing the bulbs and turning on and off the lights and adjusting the dimmer but nothing doing. The headlights work fine, both low and high beams. Even the brake lights work when I engage the brake pedal. Turn signals and hazards also work fine. I've tried everything I could think of including changing those colored fuses out with new ones but still having this problem. If anyone could help or have any advice I would greatly appreciate it.

Were the fuses blown? Possible short?

check the fuse. Same thing happened to me

Looks light tail-light relay (underhood fuse box) is common to most (except ceiling light) your non-functioning lights. Check relay.

Make sure ceiling light switch is functioning and you have 12V to switch at all times. If not a fuse is bad (37) or you have a bad ground.

good luck

a lot of times its the headlight switch

happen to me before. its a short in the radio install. many inadequate radio installers don't electric tape wrap all the wires. and it cause a short that corresponds to the "interior lights" fuse. you need a new fuse and take apart the dash. this only happens if you have a aftermarket radio. if you don't then this not the problem. lol
