My tail lights and interioir lights (Dashboard and climate control lights) simultaneously went out on the same night along with my brake lights, I did look at both fuse boxes and replaced all the blown fuses. Brake lights now work fine and when pressing the brake my interioir lights come on aswelll. I have also changed the bulbs for my tail lights, but did not solve my problem. Another thing to mention is that I had installed a subwoofer about a week prioir, and it also stopped working the same night (I have not found anything wrong with the system) Im not sure if some shortage happened because of improper wiring, but ever since then it no longer works.

 

I did look at both fuse boxes and replaced all the blown fuses.

What fuses?
How did you install the amp? Where did you get power?

 

Just another clown post it would seem.
If it's not, show us

• which fuses you replaced
• The wiring where the sub was installed
• A picture of your installed sub
• A picture of the tach on your instrument cluster
• A picture of the fuse box (interior, both sides
• The stop lamp bulbs you replaced
• The parking lamps you replaced
• The VIN of the vehicle so we can look up the options

Otherwise you leave me no choice but to change all of your typed text to white and remove the vowels.

You hv 24 hours.

 

Ive just replaced the park again and now running lights and interioir lights work, but ive replaced the brake and park 3 times now, i also have pulled every fuse from the cabin fuse box nothing is wrong with them. It seems I just have a short somewhere now

 

Well, I'm eating my words now. Off to review what's above. I'll be back.

 

If the fuses intermittently blow, and the problem affects multiple systems, you may have have burned pins or wiring or loose wiring under the fuse box where the wires for the various circuits attach to it.

I don't remember the layout of the SL1 fuse box or the IP junction box, but I would take a quick look at which fuses are physically where. If the brake light fuse, tail light fuse, IP cluster fuse and any other fuses associated with the issues are physically located near each other on the fuse panel or IP junction block, that may point towards the issue being there. In order to blow the fuse, you'd need to have 2 hot wires coming into contact with each other just not all the time.

When you say you changed the brake lights several times, is that because they burned out (measure open with a DVM) or because they stopped working and you changed them as part of general troubleshooting?

Or do you mean you changed a burned fuse three times because it kept burning? Need to make sure we are on the same page.

I will post links to the different circuit diagrams as well as a picture of the IP junction box layout and the fuse box layout and then we can look at it with respect to all the stuff that poured out of my head above.
