i have a 05 civic and while not 100% sure, but pretty sure, the translucent nick in the dial that controls fan speed, direction of air, and temp, lights up

now i opened up the unit to redo some LED wires, and when plugging everything back in, they no longer light up! i have no idea what i could have missed, since i checked and everything is plugged in.

the actual functions of the dials work, it does control the fan speed, temp, etc.

thanks for any help

 

oh crap actually i noticed none of my "when headlights are turned on" interior illumination is working. the auto stick lights "D D2 D3 R etc" are not lighting up either. what could have gone wrong?

the only thing i touched behind the stereo was the power and ground leading to the stereo, i cut them and spliced my LED's with them

 

Is your radio working? you are probably using too much power from those wires. If not maybe you moved something while you were cutting the wires.

 

radio is working

another thing i noticed, when i use the remote lock, the lights no longer blink on each press of the close and lock. they do function however, and makes the "beep" after the two clicks.

i was also under the steering wheel taking a look at the cover and the fuse box. i did not touch anythign at all, at least not on purpose, but just incase that might be the cause i thought i should put that into the open.

thanks for any help

 

You said you redid LEDs
in all honesty it would be really helpful if you explained exactly what you did with LED wires

 

sorry

when i first had my LED's wired up, i had the all the ground wires from the LED wired to the black ground cable going to the stereo.

also before i had the wires going to the yellow, always on 12v wire, i switched to the red 12v so the lights would turn off with the engine

 

woo i fixed it

apparently it was luckily just a blown fuse,

"Small Light" fuse i guess. dont know how it happened, i disconnected neg battery cable and everything, maybe when i was putting the dash back in with the battery cable on? idk maybe. well im glad its fixed thanks guys
