ok this is one of my smaller issues on the car I want to work on, but after checking many many threads cant seem to find anyone who has had my specific problem, and needing some input on this. starters its an 89 bird. Ok all my fuses are fine, checked them all, all the lights on the car work great and I recently replaced all the bulbs anyways just because many were burnt out (it was kinda a beater car) i replaced the cluster because the clear plastic was busted out by the fuel guage, and the lights didnt work before, but I checked the old bulbs and the new ones just in case since it wa all out of the car anyways. So basically just no dash lights, regular interior light all work fine as well. Possibly just a bad dimmer switch do ya think, it really doesnt feel like there much resistance when turning the wheel. Also I think the headlight is bad too because just recently i started having troubles with the headlights going down, then by carefully toggling the switch the lights would start to go down then stop, then do it a couple more times then theyd go down. now they just dont go down, but when i look at it the next day they are down. So Im kinda thinking that they both could just be shot, But what do you guys think? Anything I should check out before replacing the switches?
