I've encountered two difficulties during the installation of a JVC radio/cassette/cd changer. (1) The installation went fine, and all the JVC stuff worked, but when I was done, there were no connections for the leads on the Odyssesy harness for the instrument light and the dimmer. I am using the Odyssesy-specific harness adapter - by Scosche - that I purchased from a local audio shop. The wiring matches one for one. The instrument lights don't work now, with or without the dimmer. There are no leads coming from the JVC harness to connect to them. The headlights work o.k. Does anyone know what I should do with the instrument/dimmer leads to get the instrument lights to work? The odometer is still lit. (2) The more immediate problem. While trying to figure out what to do with the instrument leads from the wiring harness, I touched the instrument leads to the 12V leads. Bad move. I heard a pop, sort of like a fuse blowing. Now the front parking lights and the taillights don't work. Headlights are still o.k., back-up is o.k., and turn signals, front and rear, are o.k. I can't find any indication in the owner's manual of a fuse for the parking lights or taillights. Does anyone know whether they are fused, and if so, where the fuse is?? Or, are they somehow connected with the instrument light problem?
