clock and temp light on full

My clock and temp light are on full bright! When driving at night the dash lights are not on. This all started when I pulled out the radio to fix the radio cage door. When I put it back in, this all happened. I do not see where pulling the radio out could effect the Full Bright.

Did you try pressing the brightness button on the left hand side on the blinker handle?

No such thing as dumb questions, sometimes we forget the obvious, but not this time, that was the first thing I did!

Perhaps you blew the illumination fuse? Its a 10Amp, in the under dash fusebox. I pinched a wire re-installing the radio in the Laguna and it kept frying fuses.

I did check that fuse, I wasn't sure what all it "illuminated", but I will check it again today.

I checked the fuse again, it was a 5 amp not 10. the fuse looked ok, then I remembered I had a fuse tester, sure enough it was blown.
Thanks everyone.
