Pathfinder dash lights

I have been having many problems with alot of my interior instruments and accessories. All of which I have been able to sort out and fix, except for the latest. My dash lights will not come on, I have tried all methods of trouble shooting possible. I have checked fuses, wire connections, inspected wires for shorts, checked bulbs, and the switch, and cannot figure out what is happening. I am horrified to take it to an auto/electrical specialist, just to get it looked at is more than I can afford. Does anyone have any ideas on something that I may have missed? If so, reply here or email me at:

I have the same problem. Half of my tach lights are permanently out and just last night the speedometer side started flickering. Isn't there a small fuse terminal behind the guage bezel?

Exactly, all the other lights, like warning lights, blinker lights are working, just the tach and speedometer lights are out. I pull the whole instrument panel out and did not see anything else to check, but that was after pulling everything thing else apart first. Maybe I missed it, I'll try again this weekend with a fresh set of eyes.

Thanks

Let me know how it all goes. I'm thinking that it just might be some loose filaments or burnt out bulbs.

next time you have the cluster out, replace the bulbs. You could have a bad dimmer switch. You may also have a bad connection on the printed circuit board. The best way to clean those is with alcohol, or you can use a basic pencil eraser, it works really well too.
