02 GCaravan, no dash lights

All fuzes in box under hood check ok. Lights just suddenly quit. What to check next? Thanks, Tom

[hundahunta]

was your vehicle just recently worked on...what about the radio, hvac lights

The wiring diagram I have shows that all of the feeds for the I/P lights come from the BCM. They have a common ground G200. I would think that this ground can be found behind one of the kick panels. Check this and make sure the connection is clean and not corroded or loose.

Thanks guys. Vehicle has not been worked on. One day the lights worked, next day nothing. About the radio. Well, it has quit also. Not at the same time, several days later. I think it is in the thing that turns it off after a short delay. Sometimes before it died, the radio would start making a sort of squeel/buzz. I would have to manually turn it off to stop the noise. It would actually turn itself off but later it would start the noise.

Any thoughts on that? Where is the delay module or whatever it is called located?

I'll go out and wiggle some wires to see if I can locate the ground. Biggest problem is at night and no dash light to light up speedometer.

Thanks for all help. Tom

MERRY CHRISTMAS

I don't know about your radio problem but make sure your dashlight dimmer control hasn't been set to minimum, which is off.

And even if it appears okay, run it up and down from min to max and back several times leaving it at maximum.
