Dash help! w/picture

Hey folks! My 88 Trans Am has the electronic/digital dash in it and the last while the fuel level gauge and half of the speedo have been really dim. I can see the speedo still probably due to the fact that the numbers are so big but the fuel guage is useless. Is this common or where would you check first. I know i may end up taking the dash apart but is there something i could try first? Thanks.

Forgot to add picture....the affected are is circled in red...

If you're having problems seeing the displays during the day that means the bulbs are going or are already out and need to be changed. With all of the bulbs working that will help daytime visibility of your digital display.
