Dash lights went out, fuse 18 keeps blowing, yet the instrument cluster works...

another way to solve this, (this was my problem) my dodge done the same thing, i have alot of accesory lights all over my truck, and stupid me left a bare HOT wire hangin around and (while i had my lights on) that wire would hit a part of the frame and blow my dash lights and marker lights, (same fuse) so when i realized that was the problem i just fixed that wire and solved my problem, now not being there to help you with this, the best i can do is tell you to look at all your wires that run your lights, from headlights to tail lights, you might just get lucky and have the same problem as me

Its the wiring harness that runs down the steering column.there is a recall for that harness for the blower motor but also fixed my airbag light and dashlights. It gets broken from the tilt steering and causes all kinds of problems

ill check it out thanks
