Ok originally when i bought the car it had fuel pressure and boost already installed. Well today I am in the process of adding egt and a/f gauges. Well it seemed as though the old gauges were powered off ignitian and dimmer and what not and so Iv been just slicing off the wiring from the old gauges for the new ones. Well everything was working fine and then all of a sudden all of the wiring for new and old gauges isnt working. No dimmer or power for any of them. The car starts fine and everything else in the car works 100 percent so I don't think any fuses are blown. Is the only possible answer a loose connection somewhere? Please help, thanks.
 
Ok now I noticed that the backliting of factory gauges (speed. and tach exc) on the dach arent liting up so I gotta have something messed up with the main dimmer wire somewhere.

edit: Dimmer switch seems to be hooked up correctly..does anyone know where the fuse for the dimmer lighting is located?
