Dash Cluster light problems

Post by BlockerImp »

So, i just recently purchased a 93 SS, and un-beknown to me the dash cluster only has one light that works, which is the right side of the tachometer. Now you can understand how much of a problem that can be. now i have no prior knowledge as to wether they have been out for a while, or if its someone such as a blown fuse. Would a blown fuse be the culprit, or do i need to replace the lights in the dash cluster?

If one light is still on, it is a safe bet it's not the fuse.

You'll have to pull the cluster out to check the lights.

Be aware of the different wattages for them though, they're ALL different. I had a few go out on mine, went to the subaru dealer and they couldn't even tell me which the correct ones to get where, since it depending on the exact bulb. I went ahead and found something that was the same size at the local Schucks. After getting them installed, it's obvious they're slightly brighter than the stock ones. oh well.

Ha, all mine are burned out too. Except that on mine only the left side of the speedo works. And the CEL, oil light and battery light are missing all together :shock:
