Gauge Lights
« on: November 15, 2008, 12:51:37 pm »
Gauges work, but the gauge lights don't come on and don't adjust with the dimmer when the headlights are. None of the fuses are blown from what I can tell and I have a hard time believing all of the lights for the gauges burned out. any help would be appreciated

Check the dimmer switch. If ok pull the cluster and check.

mine was intermittant  on and off just random.  it was really pissing me off and i found if i jiggled the headlight switch it would go on and off  so i bought a new switch for the lights replaced in about 5 min and it has worked ever since.  no problems at all
