my girlfriend just bought a 90 celica and we have found some wiring problems. i dont have a manual, it didnt come with it. the dash lights dont work, but the warning lights do work. they havent worked since we got the car. another problem...last night coming home, i was following her and the tail lights shut off. the head lights still work and so do the brake lights and turning signals. i checked all the fuses. they are fine. if you have a wiring diagram but have no idea of my problem, that would help also. thank you. camaro_1983_383@yahoo.com

almost all of the time the dash lights and/or taillights don't work, the dimmer or illumination wire behind the radio is grounded out. also if i'm not mistaken there is a fuse box inside the car and one under the hood. just a few things to check out. hope this info helps you.

If you have an aftermarket radio pull it and check as mentioned above they could have done a rig up job and you have some wires shorting out.
