I just took out my cluster pod, and I didnt unhook anything from it, I wanted to clean the thing, and jiggle the wires to the HUD to see if it would then work.I only unhooked the wires to the hazards and the defrost and flip up and the rest of the wires to the bezel.Now I got the HUD to work but the stereo wouldnt work, so I hooked up the yellow and red wire to get it to work, then i started the car and everything worked. Then when I turn it off the seatbelts wont work, the steroe dont hold memory, the clock dont work in the cluster.

What is going on? I fixed the HUD and then I lose constent power when the key is off.

The hazards still work and the lights will flip up. But something isnt keeping a constent power supply.

Please Help! THanks

checked all fuses.

well when I 1st put everything back together this is what happened:The light for the doors open stayed on and the radio wouldnt workso I wired the red and yellow wire together and then the radio would work and the light went off for the doors being open.so I thought it was fixed until I shut the car off.everything turned off.The dome light wont work, the clock in the cluster, the seatbelts, int. lights. - none of this will work with the key off.everything worked fine before.I took it all apart and tried to see if a wore came off the back of the cluster, but everything was tight.

Im lost. The constent power is gone. so everyhting resets and i gotta leave the car runnning when i open the door so the seat belts move down.

Only good thing is I fixed the HUD. just a loose wire.Now I wish I never attempted this simple task.

any other ideas?

with the HUD there is a tempermental fuse that will screw things up by being loose. Check all you fuses to see if there loose. if there is one loose just bend the spades so it will fit tighter. This worked on my HUD unit when it went crazy so it MIGHT work on yours
