ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Gauge lights don't work at night...

    Could it be a fuse, b/c as well as that, some parts of my center console doesn't light up either...If it isn't a fuse, could there be a way of replacing the bulbs that light them up at night?

        Check the 15A Small Light fuse in the Under-Hood Fuse/Relay Block, you may have a blown fuse. If some of the small lights come on, and others do not, you may have blown bulbs. Removing them and examining the filament is the only way to confirm this; you can do this visually (hard on the eyes) or with a multimeter (my preferred method).

          They don't work during the day time as well, no matter what the situation is

          All my lights work, it's just that the gauge lights don't work at all. I tried turning the little knob behind the steering wheel that makes the lights brighter/dimmer, but to no avail

          Yeah, the small lights, like the ABS, Brake, etc. all work. It's just the rest that light up the tach/speedo @ night do not work

            The "ABS, Brake, etc." are Meter Lights, they are run through the Meter Lights Fuse. I am speaking of the Small Lights Fuse, it's a different circuit. Do as I say, check the Small Lights Fuse.
