Interior lights,tach, wiper blades, turn signals, emergency signals, brake lights and running brake lights, and auto seat belts don't work.
The battery light is dimmly lit.
The car runs like a damn champion though, my new tags are on and I can't drive to work now because its lighting issue.
Already switched out the white magic box even though the last wasn't bad. All fuses seem fine..
So a ground? Anyone have any suggestions? I will switch out all the door panel fuses out anyways soon. But doubt it'll help.
All these similar threads but none helped me.

I'm not sure of what your lighting problem is but I'm pretty sure the e cluster is not compatible with the de swap. I'm looking for a 91-93 cluster so I can have a tach, temp, and speedo again(my speedo worked occasionally before the swap, doesn't now). The fuel guage is about the only thing that will work on my e cluster right now.

Yea I switched out for a de cluster and it worked occoasiionaly then stopped. Now only the fuel guage works, or at least I hope the readings correct haha.
