Headlight switch. Went twice on my 99, if all your lights work except for interior lights Id check your fuse and if thats not poped id check your head light switch.

did you smack the crap out of the dash??

if they all worked at one time and then they all suddenly stopped working at the same time probably fuse or the harness in the back came loose. thats my guess.

Default headlight switch / dash lights

Hi all, i wonder if anybody can help me!?

I have a 93 cherokee that all of a sudden blew the 5 amp instrument panel/radio/interior lights fuse. I replaved the fuse, turned up the headlight dimmer switch and pop - it blew again. I have had every bulb/component i can think of unplugged but it still blows the fuse when i turn up the dimmer switch. So i decided to replace the headlight switch - with no joy.

Any help would be fantastic
