hey guys!

CAR: 02 Box S

Problem Description:
I noticed the other night that when I switched my headlights on, something was noticibly darker in the cabin. I have ZERO lights for all 3 analog displays, my digital OBC display is perfect, just nothing on the analog gauges. I checked the obvious in the fuse box, nothing. I tried adjusting the trip stick to adjust the brightness just in case it was set to dim/off, nothing. Anyone have any ideas? Woud all of the bulbs (assuming multiple bulbs) go out at the same time or does it seem more likely that it could be something else?

All advice/help would be greatly appreciated....including if I need to, the DIY instructions for replacing the components myself.

Thanks in advance!
