2g lighting problem

[iron bird]

ok last night i installed a new radio in my 2 g and now none of my accessory lights, parking or tail lights are working checked fuses and there good idk what else to look at.

I know the 1g's have a "dash" fuse. If blown, will give nearly identical symptoms. I don't know the 2g's well engough to know if they have this fuse. Just go check.

theres a fuse in the fuse box in the engine bay its right next to the radio fuse names ROOM LAMP maybe thats blown

did you check to make sure you didnt cut any wires or ground anything out?

 

[iron bird]

im going tho check the fuse now but the only thing i can think other then that is that there was an orange and white wire that was unused on the new harness

 

[pwnzer]

Well, I'm going to assume you wired it up correctly because it probably came with a diagram, but just double check all your wiring.

Make sure you didn't attach anything to the dimmer circuit. People have been known to use it for power to the radio or hook it up to the radio lighting when the radio really wants to be connected to the taillight circuit to know then the external lights are on.
