Ok folks I need some advice.Turned my lights on tonite and gauge cluster didn't come on. I have seen pictures of some of you that have torn your dashes apart for different reasons, How many connections and where are they located for the gauge cluster lights?
They worked the night I brought it home so I know they work any help would be greatly appreicated.
Thanks
Bill

 

you make sure you didn't dim the lights out by mistake? maybe you rubbed against the switch or something.

 

No, all other lights on the dash are working and dim but the gauge cluster is dark all the time no matter what I do. But thanks.

 

Time for a new cluster. It has happened to 99 and 00s, why not an 01? All dash lights work except instrument cluster. There are no bulbs to replace , they will change the whole thing out. Welcome to the wonderful world of the future....why change a bulb when you can change the entire assembly!

its electroluminescent...as far as fixing it i dunno

 

I hope warranty covers that for you.I am sure it is not cheap.

 

Well I appreicate the opinions and maybe the gauge cluster is bad, but tonite the cluster lite up so I assume it is just a bad connection.
Can anyone please tell me where in the dash this connection might be?
Thanks
Bill
