NO lights work inside the interior
 
So, I was playing around with these halo rings I installed. I was testing the lights out on the battery. The headlights were on for about 3 minutes and started to flicker. Now, the dome light, lights on gauges, push to start light, headlights, lights on the visors, and door lights won't work. Can't lock or unlock my car either.

The only thing getting power that I know of are the brake lights behind the rear seats when i press on the break and the windows. It goes up when I close the door.

Do you guys think it's a blown fuse?

You have a clue to which fuse or fuses it might be?

There is a chart in the owner's manual. Should only be one fuse.

Buy one of these and start checking (start with the fuse panel under the dash).

Hello Shadowy and welcome to our friendly forum ...... :clap:

I see ol @Tcoat put you on the right trail.....;)

Yep, I'd say that 95% of the automobile electrical problems are due to a blown fuse.

You will notice in your manual, there are two fuse boxes, one under the hood and one under the dash. The manual shows which fuses control what things.

Got it ...... ??

:D

Currently looking at the fuses under the dash in the car and got the thing to pull them out from the fuse box under the hood.

Just trying to figure out which fuse it could be. I do have the owners manual with me right now but can't seem to find the blown one.

Can be hard to tell sometimes.
