Is there a easy fix for the Instrument Panel Backlight - Fuel Gauge! It has faded since I have had it in the shop! Morrons must have bumps my Dashboard/panel or something! The Fuel Gauge Backlight is very Dim. Does each Gauge have a separate light bulb!
Will this require removal of the instrucment Cluster Panel! Also, what would cause just one Gauge Backlight to go Dim!
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,

Nothing lasts forever. It amazes me that someone would think so. Are you sure that you did not bump it?
Yes you have to get back there, so get out there and pull it out..
Btw, it's morons not morrons (sing. moron).

What small parts are you talking about would it be small brittle plastic or some clips I am about to do the same.
Thanks

It is very easy. First you have to pull the steering wheel all the way out and bottom.
Next you take the trim off by taking off 2 little screw and unplug the harness for the switch that's on the trim(plastic cover).
then you take off the screws that's holding in the instrument cluster and unplug the harness in the back. Now you can pull the instrument cluster out and change the bulbs.
