1990 s10 dash lights

[mme43]

My 1990 s10 has several dash lights that have either stopped working all together or work intermittently. The left side of the dash is dim, so it leads me to believe a bulb is possibly burnt out. The right blinker light has stopped working altogether, an the high beams light works sometimes, but not always. What can i take apart to get to the dash lighting system, how do I get to the lights? any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.

NOT UNUSUAL. THE DASH CAN BE REMOVED BY TAKING OUT A FEW SCREWS. PULL THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY OUT STRAIGHT. THERE IS A ROW OF PINS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE PANEL THAT JUST PLUG INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, THAT MUST BE PULLED OUT AS YOU REMOVE THE PANEL. YOU`LL SEE WHAT I MEAN WHEN YOU GET IN THERE. IT IS NOT A HARD JOB AT ALL. THE BULBS SIMPLY TWIST LOCK INTO THE BACK OF THE DASH PANEL ASSEMBLY. I HAVE DONE SEVERAL OF THESE AND HAD EXCELLANT RESULTS. JUST BE CAREFUL, AND USE YOUR COMMON SENCE.
GOOD LUCK .
