Hey,
So I finished the installation of the FM modulator to work with my iPod, and it sounds great. Everything works perfectly, until it becomes nighttime, and the twilight lights turn on with my headlights.
The problem is this:
Random lights aren't lighting up. For instance, the 1 and 4 and 3 and 6 buttons on the radio light up, but the 2 and 5 and eject and seek and several others are out.
Yes, I did recently have the radio out of its space, but I made sure that all of the connections in the back were plugged in all the way, and I didn't cut any power wires. I checked the fuses too, even though they weren't a likely problem.
The FM modulator doesn't look suspicious either, because I completely disconnected it and the lights on the radio were still out. It is power via the accessory plug on the fuse panel, and it is ground by touching the ground cable directly to the metal radio case, which apparently is grounded as well. I just taped onto one of the ridges there and it seems to work out fine.
Any ideas what would make SOME of my lights go out?
thanks so much,
