Dash Lights

My Dash Light for the shift sel. is dim or not lit. is this an easy fix and is it easy to get in to change the bulb? thanks in advance..

If I am not mistaking you should have the digital PRND321 indicator display. So there is no backlight bulb. Not an easy fix but some troubleshooting should be done to rule out a possible bad IP Cluster assembly which is a common problem.

Do the other dash lights, radio and climate control lamps vary in intensity with the dimmer control?

I have the same problem in my 1998 Century PRN321 does not light up at all but everything else does.runaround

This is a common problem with Century and Regal IP clusters. There is a module in the IP Cluster that provides the gear indication and even the odometer. There are resistors that go bad causing a loss or dimming of the displays.

We have several old threads addressing the issue. Here is one such:

The problem is the complete IP must either be replaced or you can do what the GM dealers do by sending it into a company named Southern Electronics. If you get a new IP the odometer reading will need to be programmed in. Anyways, it is not an easy fix.
