No Dash Lights!

OK so I put my retrofits in yestursay everything works fine except I left my angel eyes unhooked since I needed a soidering gun. Now everything works except my speedo, air control, window lights. I checked all the small fuses and all of them were good. I even swapped out the dimmer switch since I had another and no dice. Any help would great thanks.

I spliced into the ground that goes to the little bulbs behind the reflectors in the headlights. I didn't put those bulbs back in either if that's a problem

right unplug the headlights and see if it goes back to normal. If it doesnt check all the fuses in both fuse boxes (probably not but wont hurt)

parkin lamp fuse? I don't know why yer Hvac lights went out, i thought that was on another circuit... sounds like jus some bad shiiiit...
jus make sure yer wires are all tapped in right.. I don't know why you'd have to solder any wires for you Halos but... do watcha wanna do

but do like ole boy said an unplug em, check the wiring..

Bad wirin in my taillights blew my parking lamp fuse,dash cluster went out.
Bad wirin in my headlights did the same thing few months later

check your parkin lamp fuse(fuse box under hood), and your cluster fuse(passenger side kick plate I think they call it?..)

Cluster's a 10 amp (ithink) an prk Lmps a 20 amp
