I installed a deck in a 94 ford ranger and the dash lights no longer work at night I am not there to look at it right now so does anyone have any suggestions on the problem?
I used the wiring harness out of a 95 for escort install is that the problem?

i would say somethings wired up improperly and you've probably blown the dash light fuse

but would the dash lights (just the back light not the seat belt lights) be on its own fuse? I am going to check all the fuses anyways

Thanks guys. Problem's fixed.
Double-checked the wiring - no problems. Just replaced the fuse, and it's good to go.
