I've had my 350 garaged for the past few months hooked up to car battery charger. I went to go and start it the other day and noticed that my instrument cluster does not light up with the exception of the seatbelt and brake indicators.

The speedo, tach and gas gauge do not light up. The speedo and tach don't work at all. The tire pressure and temperature gauges over the radio unit/cubby don't light up as well.

The radio, interior lights, headlights, power seats all work.

I'm thinking that a fuse is blown or a relay is shot but, I'm not sure where to start. Anyone else experience this and know of a remedy?

 

This is going to sound stupid: but did you adjust the brightness using the buttons on the side of the gauges? If so, then it probably is just a fuse or something simple.

 

If the speedo/tach don't work at all then it's not the dimmer switch.

 

Did you check all fuses and relays?

 

Ah, didn't realize the needles don't work either.

 

did you figure this out? I have the same problem

 

u problem figured it out but i am posting this for people who google it and came to this page with no answer.

the fuse under the driver kick panel is blown. I installed my st800 and somehow it blown the ignition and this fuse. just get it replace. it is the 10 amp fuse.
