So I was installing an LED strip that takes 12V . I put them in the clearance strip and as soon as I plugged in the second LED strip I think it shorted. I also noticed that the interior lights of the A/C controls and Clock are out as well. Does anyone know how to fix this? And does anyone know how many volts the Clearance strip can take?

 

check fuse. i beleve its the box behind the battery

 

I did check the fuses today but non of them look like they're blown. Do you know which fuse controls those lights?

 

check again

 

Just checked the fuses and tested them, they're all good.

 

even the fuse box hidden behind the battery?

 

Yup checked both fuse boxes. I don't know what to do

 

idk then sorry

 

Fuses haha. That's my gut. I would actually pull all the fuses and check them individually. Hope you didn't short out your bcm.

 

I really hope it's just fuses. I will recheck all the fuses on Saturday. Also, is every slot for the fuses supposed to be filled (I noticed no fuses were ever in the BCM fuse slot - in the fuse box next to the battery)? If the BCM shorted, wouldn't I have a problem with all my other lights too?

 

So it's dark out here in Atlanta now and I noticed that my tail lights are also out which is a hazard. I did a little more searching and found this thread and I really hope this fuse solution works and that it's not the BCM. https://g35driver.com/forums/faq-diy...dont-work.html
