Dash illumination and Running lights question?
Alright the other night i was sitting at a light at night and suddenly my dash lights go out but my turn signal is still on, so i'm like wtf, a fuse? about 2 lights down i hit the brake and the lights turned back on, woot! but then 2 lights down the street they turned off again. it did this a few times.
i stopped and changed the fuse and they worked for a few minutes but then they burned out again. now they don't even work at all. so being the smart, rx7 knowledgable person i came to the library of the rotory, rx7club.com and did a search.
i narrowed it down to being my light switch. am i correct?
do i need to get a new, rebuilt one off the internet?
thanks a lot

Its probably a burned out light switch or wiring harness.. I have experienced this alot and it also mentions it in the Sticky... First, always check your fuses first (it might not have a good connection. Secondly, you can swap out the harness and the switch w/ ones that dont look burnt out from another car... However, if you do that it would be best to either resolder the switch yourself or to buy a new switch from Icemark.
