    Okay guys, new to this site but been a grandprix guy for awhile. I Have the 04 GP GT2. One night while driving, I lost all the interior lights (shifter, steering wheel, doors, AC, and Radio Buttons) the only lights I have are the speedometer, HUD, and half the screen radio. I also get green lights when turning on the AC. I have replaced the dimmer switch and nothing, checked every fuse I know of, even the one behind the fuse box PK LP. Does anyone have any idea what I can do? I love the red interior lights on the grandprix.

    I've read about possible parking lights or brake lights but both of those work fine on my car

    Try a new headlight switch. Grab one from a junkyard.

    Checked my headlights today to find the connection plug seemed to have frayed wires, missing ends inside the plug. One light has highbeam working, idk if that could be the problem but it's worth replacing to find out
