We've installed a JVC stereo in my '99 NIssan Sentra. We have everything working correctly EXCEPT the dashboard and shift lights. We can't figure out where these 2 wires are supposed to be connected to. We're having trouble with the illumination wire and the dimmer wire. Anyone have any suggestions??   I need to know how fast I'm going at night!! Thanks

Have you checked for blown fuses??

Yes we have. Everything's fine, including the bulbs. The wires aren't connected to anything.....this is because we're unsure where to connect them. We've tried a few things, which result in either blown fuses or reversed lights (meaning the dash lights are on when the headlights are off and the dash lights go off when the headlights get turned on) We just need to know what wires the illumination wire and the dimmer wire's get connected to.
