I would first re-check the fuse...I would replace the one you have in-line...why not? Secondly, I would check the light switch on the dash. This massive switch has about 16 wires conneted to it. It operates the lighting system completely. Turn it back and forth a bunch of times and see if you get a flash of light. If that doesn't work...check the dimmer switch and see if it dims the center lights (the radio, heater, gear shifter, etc.) if they fade in and out, its not your dimmer. If that doesn't work, you need to remove the steering wheel, and slide back the instrument cluster. Without pulling the cluster all the way out, check for any loose connections...never pull connections out to check connections, always push in. If you don't get any reactions...grab a wire, preferably with an alligator clip at each end...take one end of the wire and ground it to the chassis. Take the other end and place it on each metal screw and see if that works. It could be as simple as a bad ground wire. Bad ground wires seem to appear more often during cold winter months....the plastic and thin wires get brittle when they get cold. I would think one of the above should solve the problem...or, maybe all of the bulbs burned out at the same time...not likely, but something to check.

Why does the hazard lights on a 1998 acura integra make the gauge cluster lights flicker on and off?
If I understand the question correctly, when you turn on your Hazard lights, the back-lighting of your instrument cluster flashes too. This is not normal. The Hazard lights should only affect the turn signals and the turn signal indicator lights in your instrument cluster. This is a wiring issue, specifically a short circuit between your hazard flasher circuit, and your instrument cluster backlighting circuit. Although I am not familiar with an Acura Integera's circuitry, I believe the short exists in this area because your instrument cluster backlight operates in a flashing pattern. It is apparent that the hazard flasher circuitry is finding ground through the circuit responsible for the instrument cluster backlight. If this is the case, to solve the problem all you have to do is isolate the short and wrap some electrical tape around the exposed wires, individually, for a quick fix. However, gaining access to the wires and locating the short may be difficult and frustrating. You may want to have your dealer or an experienced individual repair this for you. If you recently had an aftermarket alarm installed, they may be responsible for this issue as well, since lighting circuitry is altered for the alarm's functionality. -APTech

You have a 1992 caprice and you can't get your hazard lights to work but your turn signals work fine Please help?
If your hazard lights don't work but your turn signals do work it could be that your Hazard Lamp Flasher needs to be replaced. Your car has both a "hazard lamp flasher" and a "turn signal lamp flasher". Your "turn signal lamp flasher" is working but your "Hazard Lamp Flasher" may not be working. Buy a new "hazard lamp flasher" and install it. The hazard lamp flasher is located behind the instrument panel to the left of the steering column.

Why is my instrument cluster lights and turn signals out on 1984 380sl Thefuse is not bad.?
There can be many reasons...but, and this sounds strange...check that everything is right with the 4 way hazard switch wiring. Everything runs through there...on mine, with that switch on the center counsol...just the vibration and movement of the wood piece its in causes the problem. I have to get under and push all the ires back in.
