instrument lights out on 78 c10
« on: November 29, 2010, 03:22:58 pm »
The only lights on my panel that work are highbeam ind., seat belt, turn signals. I've replaced the bulbs and the fuse. Still only the seat belt light comes on.


I've seen the board itself mentioned. How do I go about checking it?

it is a printed circuit.  If the bulbs are new and you are getting power you have a short in it..

So there's no way to check it? Just buy a new one?

you can pull the cluster and see if there are any broken sections.
