Driving home tonight the backlight of my instrument cluster flickered. Ten minutes later it went completely off along with my cold/heat panel. I played with the rheostat, headlight switch but it wouldn't turn on. I stop at Wal mart to get a fuse because it was my first guess but when I came back and turned it on it started working again. Driving out of the lot it turned off again.
Now everytime I turn it on in my driveway it stays lit. Going through the owners manual I can't even find which fuse to change if it is just a faulty one, at this point I dont think it is. About the radio, when I turn the headlights off it is clearer on some stations, specifically some further away ones that I could hear before this. When I turn the headlights on it turns to static.
Quick search online some people are saying it is a loose wire. I'm planning on taking the cluster and light switch out tomorrow to see if I see anything. Any help I would appreciate a lot. I know basic stuff such as switching out parts. I never done electrical work.
Thanks.
