My lights on the dash are out. These are the ones that provide the backlight for the stereo, steering wheel, speedometer., etc. I can't seem to find a blown fuse anywhere. Any suggestions,.
thanks,

 

Start with simple things first. Is the adjusting wheel all the way down? Turn it up till the click is felt turning on the dome lights and then turn it back till the click is felt again and stop. That will be the highest setting. There is a 5A fuse (#18) in the Junction Box Fuse/Relay Panel inside the cab that powers this circuit but it also powers the marker and license plate lights. It cannot be burnt or you would notice.

First of all thanks for your reply. The wheel doesn't affect the illumination lights. They are out. #18 fuse is good. Several weeks ago. The lights flickered for a few minutes then went out. I pulled the fuses and checked them. I am stumped.

i would would try taking the headlight switch and dimmer switch out and checking the back of them for loose connections. since it only seems to be the dash/wheel/radio, it definetely is something in that area.

 

i just replaced all the lights in my '98. i guess they just have a 10 year life. it might just be time for you to change them out
