I've replaced the hazard switch that was broken when the radio was ripped from the dash of my 1997 Accord DX. The turn signals and hazards are now working again. However, I have no gauges -- speedometer, RPM, etc., and the rear defroster light does not come on when I press the button. The car sat for a week and I needed a jump start to get it running again. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the gauges no longer functioning. What do I need to do to repair this problem? Is there some sort of wiring involved? 1997 Honda Accord DX 5-speed 4-door 155k miles

Looking at the two different wiring diagrams for the instrument cluster and the rear window defroster the only thing in common that I can see is that they are both grounded in the same place. Supposedly under the center console there’s a main ground for a number of different in car electrical items. Without seeing your car in person that’s where I would start looking? Dan. Canadian "EH"
