Hello, I am new to forums, as of this post. I own a 2008 Chevrolet Aveo LS, Sedan. This is a problem that I had for a while, almost 5 years. I had ignored it until now. All interior backlights (radio, odometer) seemed to be stuck in daylight running lamps mode, even when it is dark, which means everything is really dark in the car, and I cannot see my MPH, odometer, radio buttons... Also, the clock is not working, displaying nothing. It used to turn on after starting the engine and stay on for about a minute, but now it just stays off completely. I checked MOST fuses that could be causing all these problems (I may have missed about 5 and the main yellow covered one, but all checked out okay), and I will check all of them when I have time.
-Fixed driver side headlight.
The car had been stored for almost 3 to 4 years in a Texas garage, which can get really hot.
I don't remember when these issues happened, before the storage or after, but I thought the heat would have something to do.
Any ideas? I will be taking a second look at the car soon.
-Sorry about the HUGE mistakes on the thread that I can't figure out how to fix...
