help help help!
I rewired my corners tonight and they worked fine. But when I was driving home, they went out along with the light on the shifter that illuminates what gear you are in, and the gauges. Did I blow a fuse or somethign? Headlights still work. Interior door lights still work. I followed the directions on Craig's page exactly. What could it be? Please reply because I want to go ahead and fix this tonight.

Problem solved. I just blew out the tailight fuse. Thanks PATRICK94SE!
Now that my corners are brighter, I just have to find some new bulbs to match my white headlamps.

Well, I searched after I made my post, lol. I read somewhere that its better to use a 15? fuse and that the reason they blew is because I overloaded the circuit. So, I'll probably go to the store tomorrow and buy a 15 just to be safe.

Next time you short something, instead of your fuse blowing, something else will go.

I have replaced all the fuse since then but i still can't figure out why my tail light works but not my gauge and shifter light doesn't. I have also replaced the interior dimmer switch but still no success. So does anyone have a solution to my problem?

even swapped gauges to see if it works, but still doesn't work. I checked and there is power going into the bulbs just don't know why it isn't working.
