Ok I grounded the wire coming directly from the cluster and that got it to turn on. What is inbetween the A2 spot and the U12 spot on the fuse box?

I just said *** it and connected the blue wire directly to the cluster. I still want to know what the actual problem is but I am tired of tinkering on my car. It is costing me a fortune driving my girls stupid V6 Corsica.
Good solution.
What kind of car is this?
MK2?
Yah MKII. 1990 Golf. Alt light always worked before but I guess whatever magic exists in the fuse box is broken.
Oh well she charges good now.

No ideas on what could be wrong with the connection in the fuse box anyone?

Oh I apologize I have tried grounding it a million times. Nothing happens. I thought I had already mentioned that. But I guess not.

You replaced the LED?
100,000% positive that you placed it on the board w/ the correct polarity?
like was mentioned before, these things have a polarity, unlike a light bulb..
im going to bet that you have the LED in backwards..
worked after adding wire from alt to cluster lead = led = right..

Where you been boy? I fixed it. And determined the location of the problem. I bypassed the fuse box since it's magic is dead and ran wire from.alt directly to cluster.
Anyone have any ideas yet on what's wrong with the fuse box?
