gauges not lighting up

jeff · January 3rd, 2007, 08:54 PM

this just came up 1 hour ago I was driving home and I noticed that the lights for my gauges are out... only the needles light up alittle bit do you guys know what's wrong with it and if it's a burnt out light bulb how do I get to it ?

maybe your wiring messed up? or your battery is dying . but ill leave it to the pros

jeff · January 3rd, 2007, 09:02 PM

can't be my wiring because I haven't even opened up or did any thing to the wiring as far as the battery how can I test that it's dying because It may be because it's the battery that came from the dealer ship I bought it from. But is there a chance that the light bulb burnt out ?

did you twist the light thingy...you can dim them like that...if u didnt already know

Youngin · January 3rd, 2007, 09:03 PM

that could be how much miles does your car have?

jeff · January 3rd, 2007, 09:04 PM

46k I've been driving with my lights on all the time too.

Youngin · January 3rd, 2007, 09:05 PM

yeah there is a dimming . not switch but a lil side-to-side button

Youngin · January 3rd, 2007, 09:05 PM

46k i dont think it woulda burned out unless you occasionally leave your lights on while your sleeping
