Hey guys , can someone give me a headsup as to what I'm donig wrong here ? I have NO instrument panel lights but all else is working fine . I have the EZ wire harness and shark gauges . I have power at the fuse box labeled gauges and all my indicator lights are working ,along with all the gauges temp , amps etc are working right when the truck is running . Do I have a wire not connected right at the headlight switch side ? The switch is a 1979 FORD switch . I know it's probably something real simple but man it's driving me nuts ...Thanks

 

I don't know how you have it wired but you should be able to run your dash light wire to a feed on the headlight switch on the outlet side of the rheostat, that way you can dim them.

 

The EZ wire kit has a brown wire from the dash lights that goes to the headlight switch. There should be a terminal on the headlight switch for the inst lights or panel lights. I don't have the diagram for that switch, maybe you can find it on-line.

Also, check the ground. I had to run a ground bus from battery to a spot up under the dash to get good ground connections.

 

Found this in another FTE post, give it a try
