lyzic Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 the other day my 2000 xe ran into a weird electrical problem i'm not even sure how it happened.... something happened...and now i don't have running lights in the back, and my interior dash lights don't work. fuses are all good. stereo works, headlights work, interior lights, fog lights, a/c works anyone have any idea what could be wrong, and what to check? i really have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Could be the dimmer is shot. But I'd think you'd blow a fuse in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trainman Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Don't know if the 00's had this, but my 02 had the daylight control module (that is what the mechanic called it anyway) fail, giving weird effects as well. No gauge lights on one side, no low beam on one side, etc. It was intermittent to start, with only some of the issues showing up at any one time, then poof, all at once. $500 later and all was good.

keelhaul Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 (edited) My 02 also has intermittent dash lights and right side high beam. I figured it was either the daytime running light control or the smart entrance control unit. Now I figure it is the daytime running lights. Thanks trainman. Since your missing tail lights and interior lights I think the Smart entrance unit might be the problem if your pathy equipped with the automatic lights.
