Illumination
My illumination doesn't work and I've replaced the fuse, all of the other things ran off that fuse works, but my dash board isn't illuminated. What should I do ¿

i had this same problem. it ended up being the dimmer switch. all you have to do is replace it or bypass it. theres pics on how to bypass it on here, just search. the only thing after you bypass it is your gauges will always be all the way bright. not a concern to me. i had it bypassed for a long time with no problems and i never planned on changing it.
i just searched the porum to find the thread i was referring to. while doing so i remembered the thread i was talking about was bypassing the fuel pump relay. i had a guy at a shop show me how to bypass the dimmer switch. just run wire from one of the power wires in the switch back to the other one. im not sure with it is and my rx7 is a ways away. if youre not sure how to do it, dont. find out exactly how to do it first.

if that doesnt work check the fuses on the strut tower on the driverside close to the coils those fuses may look good but they tend to burn out and that can cause you not to have lights i had it happen to me on my 1st fb
