Interior dashboard indicators

My turn signal indicators and high beam indicators arent working in the dash. However, they are working on the outside of the car? What will cause these to stop working? Also, my back up lights stopped working

Damon, check for battery voltage...

also, you may have a short somewhere, totally unrelated to those lights, that may throw the cluster off - did this coincide with the reverse lights not working?

I had similar issue, had a short in the rear left license plate light - the turn signals worked fine, but no indication in side, the highbeam was fine, no indication inside...

to check the bulbs in the cluster, run TEST2 - it will illuminate every functional light bulb in the cluster (well, almost every one)... this way you will know that the light bulbs inside the cluster are fine...

my offer stands valid - if you need further help with the rear camera, lets talk and set up one of (warmer) weekends... I just need to plan for it, as I have kids and I am their taxi driver... lol...

he was installing reverse camera, and in the process of wiring the trigger wire to the aftermarket headunit from the reverse lights, cut a wire, which confused the heck out of the LCM... Once he rectified the cut wire, the issue resolved...

But the reverse camera still needs to be done, though...

It was followed up by text messaging, and Damon resolved the issue himself... He probably did not have a chance to update the posts yet with exact resolution...
