Check the INST LP fuse.

If it's good, change the bulbs. That's easiest if you pop the cluster out and change em ALL at once; only takes about 10 minutes to swap EVERY SINGLE ONE.

There's about 12 or 15 inst lp bulbs, plus about 6 or 8 indicator lights. Best to just buy acoupla boxes of bulbs (NOT, one card at a time at Da Xone) and do em all every one.

Part # is 194.
