Hi Guys, any advice gratefully received. I have my dash out on a 95 Chim and was upgrading the gauge lights to LED’s. I put a couple in and all seemed well but by the time I got to the water temp gauge the led didn’t illuminate. I put the old bulb back in and that worked, tried the led again but no joy, tried the rest and nothing. Now I have no dash lights, no side lights or headlights or fog light. I have checked fuses for headlights and dash lights and they are not blown. I’m very confused as to what I’ve done wrong by putting a couple of LEDs in? Oh and the led kit didn't include the right bulb for the clock either which is very small. Any pointers? Thanks in advance

Have you accidentally pressed the dash board light button - under the dash to the left hand side of the steering column.

I did this a few years ago, the clock size I needed on a '96 Chimaera was size BA7s. It was a bigger filament a few years later, my '97 Cerbera, it was BA9s.
