Help : Navigation lights very dim.

Hi guys,

My hazard light recently died and i figured that i would replace it myself. ( with this : https://acurazine.com/forums/1g-tsx-2004-2008-124/diy-vsa-moonroof-heater-gear-shift-lights-679654/ )

Long storys short, when i tried to test the light, a burning smell started to happen and my Hvac / navi lights went out. i was like " OH butt-cakes" and checked my fuses. As i thought, the interior light fuse under the hood blew and i went ahead and replaced it. i once went ahead and checked my hvac/navi lights and they were dim... really dim... steering wheel lights are good, same with the moonroof button, and heated seats light. it just seems only the hvac/navi lights were affected.

now anybody know where i could look next ? or would i be looking to replace thedreaded printed circuit board thats plagued the 2004 tsx's?

any info would be greatly appreciated

thanks guys!

You can try to power up the head unit separately with an external source: that will help in diagnosing if its just the headunit or a fuse/pin issue.

If you power it up with an external source and its still dim, you probably just have to replace the headunit.
