BX24 Dash Panel

[Ngiovan]

Got my new (to me) bx running a few weeks ago and noticed the LCD hours meter was dead. Seemed to be a common issue with these, so I went ahead and got a new panel kit from Kubota.

Install went fine, tested the panel before snapping it into place and everything looked good.
Snapped it in and buttoned everything up and now the panel isn’t lighting up at all, with the exception of the turn signals which are dim when turned on.

I checked all the harness connectors and wiring half a dozen times.

Any ideas on what could have happened by snapping the panel into place?

Does the panel work if you take it out of the dash? Does the old panel still work? I assume you got the kit with the new style dash and the wiring harness adapter?

Im gonna pull it back out this afternoon and see. It is the full kit with the panel and wiring harness/adapter. Old panel worked when I removed it (other than hours meter) so i’ll pop that back on and see if that works too.

sounds like a bad ground connection, though I'd have to see a wiring diagram.
check where solid black wires from the dash go to (maybe a screw in the frame ? )
