Correct - All are clear bulbs with the tint in the cluster faceplate.

@jonfasch Not sure if you need it, but for the two bulbs you posted a picture of, the larger one should be a 74 which you can just pull out of the base to swap in a new 74. The smaller one is a Neowedge. From the picture I can't tell if it is a T3 or a T4, but for that one the entire unit is replaced.

Yes... Thanks! I was able to pull the larger one out of the socket with the light grip of a pliers. My fingers kept slipping.

Okay... I finally have all the instrument cluster bulbs switched out that either were bad or I wanted to replace. I replaced all 3 Gauge Backlights (green condoms) with just the default clear bulb (I like that better).

I did pull out the console approximately 8-10 times - as I initially had the incorrect bulbs on hand when replacing for a few of the locations, and while testing a few others. I have it down to 7 minutes from opening the hood (disconnecting battery) to having the instrument cluster on the workbench. Easy-Peasy now...

The only bulb I'm unsure of is the A/TP bulb. I never could get that bulb to light after replacing the bulb, and the socket multiple times. It doesn't light when starting the vehicle, and it doesn't light when putting the 4WD in neutral and trying all the other shifting options... I'm not sure what is up there.

Anyway, I'm good with it now - and really like having almost all working as needed.

Though I do have VSC Off / VSC TRAC / Check Engine Light on ALL the time. But I've had these 3 lights on since 2007 within a month of buying the vehicle with about 55,000 miles... I just went over 320,000 a week or so ago.

Attached is a layout of the Instrument Cluster bulbs use, color, and bulb number. I searched hard for this exact layout online previously - but could not find one.

That light is purely 'mechanical' - it should only light with the vehicle 'ON' the trans in Park and the transfer case in neutral. Likely just a dirty switch on the transfer case. It is pretty unimportant - it just tells you that the parking pawl in the trans won't stop the truck from moving even though the truck is in Park. Most people here probably have never even seen it turn on...

Your comment...."should only light with the vehicle 'ON' the trans in Park and the transfer case in neutral."

I tried that exact situation multiple times with different bulbs and sockets... So I'm guessing you may be correct. As I feel I remember that light lighting up years ago... but I rarely do anything with the transfer case.

Maybe just a quick spray of electrical cleaner one of these days on the plugs when it gets above zero here... :-)

Thanks!
