i need some serious help with wiring

alright here it is. i converted to s5 front bumper from s4 and i put s5 turn signals in and now the dash light wont work and the turn signals wont work. could i have blown a fuse? any idea for which fuse it might be? or any of you know that there is a trick with the splicing of the wires or something? lemme know, thanks

well i just got done dooing this last weekend and kinda had the same problem . i hate to ask but you did match the wires right ,right? cause i had mixed up the black and green cause the green was cover in dirt and didnt realize it til i got everthing wired up aN IT DIDNT WORK . 2nd you did use butt connectors right cause i've had suiff come un done while taping it together now thats all i use is the butts connectors to splice things together. as for a blown fuse its possible and that goes back to checking what wires you connected to what . if you dont have a fuse box cover i'm preety sure there is a copy of one on here . hope i it works out for you

well i matched them up color for color. but just wrapped them up and taped them with electrical tape....but how does that explain the rear signals and the dash light going out?

where is the meter fuse?

also can relays go bad?

alright lol it was the fuses

except now for some reason the left turn signal stays on and the right one doesnt....is that suppost to happen? they both blink just as a side note.

also the left front side molding light is out....think that might a crapy bulb....unless is there a fuse for that light??
