AU Fairmont no dash lights.

[stuvw]

Hi.
All of my dash lights, including the light in the console to show the gears and the radio illumination stopped working at the same time, after the battery was disconnected for a couple of hours to reset a security lockout. The radio is lit OK when the headlights are off. It's not the dimmer (the dimmer works on the climate display and oddometer) and its not either of the instrument cluster fuses [2 and 20, if I remember correctly]).

V3RSAC3 mentioned in a post that the taillight fuse could be the reason for a similar problem, but that [15?] also is not blown. Why would that be envolved anyway?

Any clues? Is there a connector somewhere which may have separated or other possible cause to investigate?

Also where can I find the colour codes for the individual wires from the light switch?

Cheers.
