Instrument Panel Lights

[91S10]

My lights in my gauge cluster dont work, the ones that say like service engine and my turn signals work the but bigger lights dont. Ive replaced the bulbs, the fuse is good, and my buddy said it was the dimmer switch but it wasnt it either. any ideas on what it could be? thanks for anything

I may have the same problem. Is yours digital? My digital gauge becomes mostly invisible if you turn on the parking or headlights. Could the dimmer switch for the gauges be doing the same to both? Get any answers yet?

Just a question....did you replace the stereo? or tampered with it? if so I got your answer.

Well, my buddy's radio is also acting up. He hasn't replaced it, it is original, but it turns on by itself. It turns on every time you start the engine/turn on the ignition.

He also has an alarm (aftermarket) that's acting up. His car is a '94, but an overseas version of the S-10 blazer 4-door. It has the old square body style. Thanks for your help.

No its not digital and yes the stereo was replaced with a pioneer head unit what is it

I just put in a new deck, and i'm having the same problem with my instrument lights, a solution would be nice.

I figured out that if the instrument lights don't work after installing a cd player it has to do with two wires running to the stock deck. There is a thick brown wire and a thin grey wire. I am not sure of the exact fix since there are so many accessories involved with the same circuit.

Check the wiring, a connection might have broken or fallen out.
