instrument cluster lighting
 

well, my interior illunimation 5 amp fuse keeps blowing, leaving me with no instrument cluster lights. bought a used dimmer switch hoping my old one was to blame, but it did not solve my problem and i've all but given up. any ideas on how i can make my own lighting for instrument cluster gauges? the white gauge faces i have on there never illuminated very well anyway. maybe some of those little lights u can plug into your cig lighter, but instead wire them to a switch or have them come on with the headlights? should i mount them under the gauges behing the clear plastic or maybe on the top of the cluster, pointing down at the gauges? (dunno if the clear plastic will cause a glare) any ideas or pics anyone might have would be great, i know someone else on here did this.

check your PM's, good luck, and bump.

almost sounds like you have a short somewhere. Check your wires to see if it's pinched somewhere.

so did you get it fixed? you get my last PM? i saw you were wroking on other things (pulleys). just checking in. good luck.
