the dash didn't work right... it was just a fuse under the steering column... the fuse had blown.. i tried to check them.. pullin them out one by one... basically in the dark... coldn't find it.. then i bought a tester.. and 40 fuses... just to replace ONE! lol.. but that fixed it.. as far as the "big fuse" it won't even allow the car to start.. or anything... but i can fix that...
