87 vette digital dash question

On my Corvette the digital dash works but only the left side lights up. at night I have to use a flashlight to read the guages. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is it expensive?

i know they sell special meters for testing digital dash components, and i believe midamerica sells them. but, if you spend the money on a meter only to find a bad dash circuit, you'll have to send it out to be repaired anyways.

you might want to find a place that specializes in reparing them or exchanging them. search on line.

thanks for the advice.

I have taken apart my dash. There are several light bulbs that produce the light to read the dashboard.
You need to take it to someone to replace the light bulbs. Jose.

Bulb man
a couple of bucks nad simple to replace
that dash comes out real easy

if it is not the bulbs it is the whole unit
you can get a rebuilt one at one of the corvette places for $125

there are 4 bilbs . they are 882,s but will be brighter if You use 891 , third stop light . be super careful when installing them and dont tuch bare glass with hand. also dont grip by the wires hanging from bottom, they come out very easy. the metal covers are easy to drop and will go down in the dash. I have doon 2 of these . If You need more help ley me know . You dont have to remove the dash to change these and they are avable at pep boys and other stores. Ken phillips Noonday , texas

How easy are they to replace? Is it better to remove the dash?

just the bezel not the dig dash . There are 4 silver round covers about the size of a dime and under these are the bulbs .

There are 3 parts to the cluster. If 1 is working and the others are not, then you may need to have the non working part rebuilt. Do a search on ebay and you will find a guy who rebuilts the LED's for $149.00. search for digital dash cluster.

$125???

That doesn't sound right. I'm guessin' that's USED, not rebuilt. 125 is way too cheap.
