You could be a victim of a large Molex plug failure.
Caig Labs makes a good pin protectant

Electroluminescent Dashboard Gremlins



I've been working on this one for a while.



Here' an update.EL went back in April.



They would light briefly when the headlight were turned on, but would then go out. I have replaced the inverters, the dimmer functions correctly, headlight switch functions correctly



I had no power to the dimmer and after searching the blueprint several times I don't have the correct print that shows anything in the EL/Generator Bay. If anyone has that Blueprint or a blueprint of the wiring for the dashboard please post it or e-mail it to me.



Power problem was solved by George Morris @ Bleakley's suggestion wire it to an open slot in a bus bar with a 5 amp fuse. This worked Great!!! The EL fired up and were home free.



That great success was short lived. The EL`s out again. The dimmer is powered, the fuse did not blow, the dimmer functions correctly, good ground, one inverter has power the other does not..



Any idea on where to go from here?
