    Hey guys, hope somebody here may be able to shed some light on a pretty strange situation going on in my Tacoma.

    A week ago I changed the amber driving/turn signal lamp bulbs without remembering to turn the switch off and blew that circuit's fuse. No problem, replaced the fuse, life is good.

    Last night was the first time driving with my headlights on since then, and when I turned the headlights on, the radio did not auto-dim to night mode as it always has. Also noticed no panel lights in the center section below the radio were on except the clock. Instrument cluster works fine. When I went into the display settings on the radio (with the headlights on), which is where you can usually manually set day/night mode, that option is not there.

    No other mods recently, no other electrical issues, and I can't seem to find a fuse to be the culprit so far...any ideas?

    Look outside the Tacoma to verify that the running/parking lights are also out.

    Are they led? I have found out the hard way that some leds will cause very strange issues.
