'95 Lumina, Dashboard lights out.

[antbach]

Hey, I am just trying to figure out whether this problem is electrical, a fuse, or the bulbs. For the last 6-9 months the left side of my dashboard has been quite dim. Everything has worked though (speedometer, gas meter, etc). A few days ago I lost the entire dashboard. Everything still works, but when driving at night, with my lights on, I can't see anything. I haven't had time to check all the fuses, and I am under the impression I need to since the fuse panel's diagram doesn't have a specific dashboard fuse labeled. If anyone can tell me that it is a fuse, and which one it is; or if its electrical; or if its the bulbs that blew out, that would be great. Thanks in advance.

There are bulbs that light up the dash, and they have probably burnt out. I can't remember off the top of my head, but I believe there is at least one per side, and the bulb part number is 194. Your cluster is electronic, so it's relatively simple to remove, and once you pull it out, you'll see the bases for the bulbs. They just twist and pop out.
