No i didn't. How do I get it? I've only been on the site since last week. I'm still trying to figure out how to get a picture under my name. I keeps telling me my pics are too large.

Go to the top and click on the button that says "User CP." It will show your private messages in there.

I have a '97 SR5 and it only had one bulb. If my memory is correct there was one bulb that was behind a clear bar that spread the light out across the whole panel. The bulb has a green plastic sleeve over it to give it the same glow as the clock and such. I did not worry about replacing that so mine is a white or yellow light now.

Ok... i got my truck looked at today and come to find out, it's the bulbs that are blown! I knew it wasn't the fuses or the dimmer. But dammit if it doesn't cost me $700 just to replace 3 damn blown bulbs

$700?!?! Why on earth did it cost that much?! :awais:

Some dimmer lights out

Some of my lights on my dash do not work anymore. I installed a new stereo the day I bought it, so I don't know if I broke it or it was originally broken. The lights on the right circle do not work, while the lights in the left circle do work. With only one side working, its hard to read the temp display.

Is this the dimmer switch issue?
Is there a bulb I need to replace?
Not sure what else to consider?

Thanks in advance!

BULBS

SOUNDS LIKE BAD BULBS TRY ONE THEN SEE WHAT HAPPENS THEN PROCEED.

I took apart the air controller. There are tiny LEDs that are attached to the circuit board by a simple twist off. I took the board to the dealer and he ordered me two new LEDs. $6.80 each.

Hope they work!
