Default Illumination death on my 2001

Hi All
The illumination of radio-console, shifter-console, console-switches, window-switches and ambiente-light is dead.
The illumination of all 5 gauges works fine.

Fuse 18, which i think is responsible, is fine.

Any Idea?

Thanks - Daniel

Hi Daniel,

From 1998 fuse chart:

check
Fuse #7 driver side
Fuse #17 passenger side

You already checked #18 dimmer module. Did you do it visually or with a meter? Open fuses can be really hard to see. No meter? Swap with ano6fuse same value.

These are both "light" related. If no luck, I'd try a hard reset.

Let us know.

Default +1 to checking all fuses

Did it happen all at the same time?

If so check all the fuses as suggested above.
