Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. The other night
I was driving home and the dashboard lights quit working. I still get the
ABS warning light on but there are no light working (cant see the
speedometer in the dark). I tried the switch to make the dash board lights
dimmer and it didn't help, but the interior light would come on when I
turned it to the far right.

Basically all lights come on when you turn the key over, but nothing like RPM and Speedometer dont have lights, any help? thanks

well there are bulbs in the instrument cluster that are not exactly easy to change-some just 1/4 turn in the back of the cluster-some are soddered in. these clusters are sensitive to static electricity so be careful if you tackle it. some guys will wear a tether strap to ground themselves.hope this helps

Did you check the fuses? I can't see all your dash bulbs going at the same time.
