now my clock in my dash doesn't light up anymore at night. Is there any way that I could have knocked something loose inside the clock? I know it's a LCD clock and that means it uses an inverter to "light up" as I said. I plugged the only connector I saw back into the clock and now this.

Help me please!

There is actually a small light bulb in there. Dealer item. I believe i got mine for like 5 bucks. You could probally get one at a boneyard. Just remove your clock and take it apart and replace the bulb. Took me 2 minutes once the stealer gave me the right bulb...

I needed that done as well.
thx.

But I also have the same problem with the radio: no backlighting. Not a major problem since I plan on placing an mp3 player in its spot.

It's not ****, it's a demand issue. Ford chose to use a bulb not typically used in automotive applications. Ok, their decision was ****...

If you can find the bulb type code, you can pick one up from some like allied electronics for cheap (compared to stealer).
