Default Gauge cluster problem

The other day the cluster stopped lighting up with the headlights. I checked the fuses and was wondering if anyone else has had this happen.

Well if the fuse was not blown I would assume there was a short in a wire. I had this happen to me but it was the int. fuse.

I would check for voltage closest to the instr cluster with a test light, and work my way
down the wire, probing and looking until I *find* voltage. Are both sides of the fuse hot?
You can start at the fuse and work your way toward the cluster, also.-Bob

check to see if the brake lights work...if they dont its your fuse**....

a lot of cars have the brake lights and cluster lights on the same fuse so you know when your brake lights are out...

**a lot of times this fuse is under the hood


g/l anyways
