//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif so i started hooking up my cd player, jvc kd-s30, i got it hooked up and started listening to it. well, last night when i opened my door, my dome light wouldnt come on. i said huh.. wonder y?... and i just got in my car. i got going turned my lights on and ill be dammed if my gauges didnt focking light up!!!!! so i took my cd player and unhooked it completely. i sorted all the wires (speaker, constant, accessory, illumination ect ect) well i have 2 extra wires that i didnt no anything about. they are the domelight wire and the gage light wire. i have the gauge light wire hooked into the illumination wire so it comes on when i have my car on but when i do that, i can turn my cd player on with my lights!!!!! so basicly i need to no where i hook up the dome light wire and the gauge light wire if any one knows. thanks for all the help in advance.
 
There's no "dome light" wire behind the head unit. If there's two illumination wires, then one is a "dimmer" wire that is controlled by the dimmer switch and the other is a true illumination wire that reads 12v whenever the parking lights are on. You apparently have one of these wires connected to your head unit's ACC input. I'm guessing you also have a blown constant power fuse and that's why your dome light isn't working.

 
yea i fixed it now... i guess it was cool to be able to turn my cd player on with my lights haha but that couldnt be good tho... so i fixed it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
im glad you figured it out...when you get a problem like that and cant figure it out, just give yourself a break from it next time. Go in and watch survivor or something and get calmed down then try it again later.

 
lol yea thats wat i did..... except i didnt watch survivor... i came to ca.com //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
