dash and hvac lights

Figure this is best in the wiring gurus realm hence i post here.

my dash lights have gone out for some reason, to include the hvac and such lights. Anyone know which wire supplies power to both of these (Wire colors). fuses seem to be all hot inside the car, and under the hood I have that damn TE cf kit so i cant see which fuse is which

so hook a brotha up if you can thx...

are all your brake lights good? on my 3rd gen, my passenger side brake light shorted out, and it somehow tripped a fuse. all my dash lights went out.

you sure all the fuses are ok?

tested for continuity on 65,66,12 and 40. Pulled the dash and the yellow with a blue trace is showing 12 volts with the lights on. Its weird because the brown holders all work. All of the black holder bulbs on the back of the gauge cluster look fine and have continuity between the two elements, but look burnt. the dimmer works on the odometer as well so that isnt it either.

im stumped. bout ready to take it to the shop next week i guess if i cant get it going. Considering just doing the leds, but that would take to long to get em here and in b4 i leave for school.

from the searches it looks like some kind of TCM or something. I got brave and said fugg it. Bought some radio shack leds to tide me over until my xtra brights come in and wired em up. If youd like I have a method for you to get it to work minimally. Took about 3hrs... I will post pics when i do the bright ones i just had to have something to see with as of now.
