break out the DMM! I guess it wouldnt hurt to check out the bulbs themselves too.

how do you break out the DMM?

Did you check the dash light dimmer knob to make sure they just aren't turned all the way down?

As for "breaking out the DMM", he means to get out your Digital Multi Meter (a piece of electronic test equipment) and start troubleshooting.

Of course he's assuming you have one and know how to use it.
