I went to install my turbo timer and like a dumb@$$ I didnt disconect the battery and now The car wont start. I thought it was a fuse but I checked them and they are all good. The car has power and the headlights work but not the backlights to the gauges. WTF the little door logo in the gauges works but not the rest of them.

 

A fuse is blown somewhere. Keep looking.
Did you check the underhood fuses?

 

sounds like installation problem?

 

us ea test light. sometimes the fuses look good but they are blown. i had a problem like that once, checked them all and they all looked good. then used a test light and had 3 bad ones. good luck tacking it down though. it was a pain in the ***

 

Most importantly, did you learn your lesson?

 

You Blew a Fuse, If you cut any wires you are retarded. Check under the hood, I will get you the EXACT location tomorrow morning. Only strip the wires and use a small amount of solder if you want, but basically you can just open the center of the wire you're splicing into and put the other wire through close the wire and wrap the new wire around it then just tape over, it holds good and its easily removable. But yeah You blew a fuse the one for the ECU.

 

CAREFUL with test lights, the new way is to use a sensing test light, it just checks to see if there is power or ground and notifies you with a green or red light. Check it out Power probe. It can also apply power or ground.

 

Did you use a harness or splice. If you used a harness did you get the correct one. (whe i first installed mine they gave me a eclipse one instead of ours.) Check every fuse in car and out.

 

leason learned...... :-) fuse was blown. I just didnt see it cause I was in such a hurry.
I bought it used andit didnt have direction and I cant seem to find any online. Anyone have a link?
