Recently installed a system, and shortly after, tach, speedometer, fuel, navi control, and temp control lights went out!...odometer and indicator lights still fine...no fuses are blown. Tried running car without system hooked up...maybe because system was taking too much power...it didnt help. So removed the whole intrument cluster...looked at the bulbs..the tach, speedometer, and fuel gauge bulbs seem noticeably darker then the other bulbs...but they dont look blown (the wire inside the bulb isnt broken) .. so what could be the problem? im so confused!!... i thought it was the battery...might be too weak to power the system...so i tried jump starting my car..and then seeing..but lights still out...then tried disconnecting the subs and turning on the car...STILL no change!

Good luck finding & fixing the problem!

I'm sorry but what does this have to do with LEDs? The post starts off as "LED problems" but you clearly state you have regular bulbs??
I think you may have to take it into the shop to get it checked out. Never heard of a system install taking out the controls and lights.

Sounds like you might have spliced through a wire behind the dash. I wouldn't say its a fuse because all those components are not on the same fuse. I would check everywhere you were we you did the install. It might be possible when you were sliding the headunit in it spliced a wire or something got partially disconnected, etc....

Does the instrument cluster still operate? What about the navi and climate control? or are they totally powered off? You need to explain EXACTLY what the problem is. Do they light up if you turn the headlights on?
