    Default Need Help.. 86 gt

    Ive got an issue with my instrument cluster. no lights come on. Ive replaced the dimmer switch all fuses. The gauges work and the lights for the hvac and the car outlay below the radio works. Ive did everything i can find and now im lost.

    parking lights and tail lights all work as well as headlights low and high beam.. just these dadgum cluster lights.

    Thanks for any direction you can point me in.

    Sounds like you will need a wiring diagram and a volt meter for a start.
    Were the lights working and suddenly quit, or did the cluster lights fail one by one, or have they never worked?

    they didnt just quit one day.. they were getting weak and then they just wouldnt light up. but the problem was spread across everything. Hvac and the time was very dim as well. I replaced the dimmer switch and that solved the hvac and time as they light up bright now but i still have no gauge lights.. i hate electrical stuff.
