Cluster Light problem
 
Hi, the light in the cluster where the oil level gauge and clock are only comes on if i tap the top of the dash, does anyone have any idea if the light bulb needs to be replaced or is the problem elsewhere. :confused:

Thanks.

If it comes on when you tap it I would think it's a loose connection.

Hi Blinkwatt, do you know where I have to look for the loose connection.

its a loose connection. Buy some LEDs and it will be cool then, lol. But you take off the dash pod and there are 3 bulbs on the back in a row, those are them. Fiddle with them and get the to work.
