Dash Light Issue
Ok, so I did my required 15 post so I can post a new thread but it still didn't work. So hopefully yall don't blast me and understand why I made 15 post recently.
So I have done many mods to my car, and had a lot of help doing so by coming to this forum, I never said much since I was a noob awhile ago and didn't want to ask stupid questions, anyways I digress.
I just install a backup camera in my 04 max that works with my pioneer avh4200DVD. I saw people post to tap into the reverse light to make it work. So after hours of having my car apart and finally getting it to work I was at ease.
But now I have another issue. For some reason when I turn my car on, the dash lights go on, but when I turn my headlights on they turn off. I first tried to check the dimmer switch but that didn't fix the problem. I then check all the fuses in the car, and they were all fine. I then check all the fuses outside in the engine area, they were fine. Then my friend suggested to switch my relays in and out with another one to see if one of them went bad. Yeah, that didnt work either. I did not have this problem before I did this job. Did anyone who installed a reverse cam in their car have this issue? I just want to fix it and still have my reverse cam working properly. In the mean time I am going to disconnect the wire that I spliced into the reverse light by my taillight to see if that fixes the problem. Thank

The shame of it, I can't really tell. I have an 06 Max, got at an auction in NJ in May 2010. The carfax then said 92+k, but the car odometer read 40+k. The odometer reads 43.5k now, so I guess the car has actually gone 95.5k, lol.

08 Maxima
Bought new, May 08. Now have 42,000. Like the car but drive it very little-wife's. Trying to find out how to change out the driver side fog light since when I went to wash it last week, noticed the glass is broken. Still haven't found out info on how to replace it......any help here would be appreciated.
