guage lights don't work....help
I don't know what the deal is. None of my gauge lights work. Its not a fuse, and its not the bulbs. Has this happened to anyone? Thanks

Hello F-Bodee,
I apologize for not also including this in my last post and causing some confusion here. There are two fuses in that circuit, the "TAIL" fuse and the "INST LPS" fuse. The one that blew on mine was the "TAIL" fuse and that is why I put it down. Sorry about not including the other fuse, it is a 5 AMP fuse.

i had the same problem when i got my iroc, and i checked all the fuses. it turned out to have something to do with the interior dimmer switch on the headlight ****. when i turned the **** so the dome light came on, the gauge lights came on and remained on after the dome light was turned off. sorry if that sounds confusing. occasionally i will have to do that to get them to come back on if i turn the headlights off or turn the car off, etc. anyone else have this happen to them?
