Dash instrument lights died

[zerospel]

Hi guys

So my instrument lights on my EK gli decided to go dead, it is the amber lights that lights up the aircon instruments and stuff.

Anyone know what I should be looking at? if its the fuse which fuse is it? :confused:

Thanks

you have to remove the AC controls and replace the globes if only one or two are out. if they are all out could be a wiring problem. are the cluster lighs ok ???

Hi

Yes the whole thing is out, but the green lights that is on the aircon buttons still works, just the actual instrument lights

sorry forgot to add that the cluster lights are ok

believe it or not, if you try to bash the surface around 'em, it might work again.. well.. it works with me before.. :P

you could check the fuse. just look behind the fuse cover or in the manual, should show you whats where. btw did you recently install a head unit? if so could have something to do with that

Anyone know how to get to the bulbs behind the buttons?
Ive searched "instrument lights", but this is the only thread.

Thanks for that,
That would've been perfect for EG.
But I'm looking for a guide for the EK series. :(
