This is my first grand prix, I own a 1997 GTP, I just bought it yesterday, well I drove it home and low and behold my instrument panel lights will not turn on. I have looked at both fuse boxes, but couldnt really find one that was specifically for the instrument panel, I probably overlooked it.... I was wondering if maybe the problem was the dimmer switch I heard that when they go bad the panel lights remain off. All other lighting is good... Oh by the way i want to cut off my daytime running lights.. any know how????? thanks

not sure on the IP lights... to disable your DRL's, since you have a 97, all you need to do is pull the DRL fuse in the fuse box next to the glove compartment

I've seen that before it's not totally out of the question.

I have the exact same problem.

The tail lights work... and the dimmer works. Only on the radio though. none of the other lights work
