Legalalien Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Has anybody run into this problem? The dash board lights on my 91 dont work I have already cleaned the multyfunktion switchin the steering colum and replased the dimer control but they still don't work. I puled out the intrument cluster and checked voltage on the pink/blue wire and get 12 volts then I checked the pink/black wire wish should be ground and get 12 volts also. I have checked al the wires and bulbs and can't find any ovious problem I'm frustrated so if any of you have had or seen this problem please HELP!!!

Nissyota88 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 My Chit wasnt working either, check your rear taillights while your at it also (not your brake lights, but the lights that are on so people can see the rear of you) anyways mine ended up being a fuse... I just switched out my emergency signals for the fuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ground wire is showing 12 volts, that means it is not connected to ground. Follow that wire, somewhere it is broken or disconnected.
