Dashboard Printed Circuit Board Problems...

OKay so I took the gauge cluster out of my car to see if I could fix the high beam indicator not working before I goto inspection to get the car registered. Anyways, I took the cluster out, found out i can fix the indicator because it doesnt have a bulb in it. So I put the cluster back in and now none of my idiot light work... Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

Check the fuse. Also did you remove any grounds? If so make sure they are not off.

I'm going to check the fuse tommorow, As far as grounds I didnt see any, I just took the panel out enough to get to the back..

Re: Dashboard Printed Circuit Board Problems...

Okay, so I took the dash today. I took the whole gauge assembly out and I ran some tests on the electrical connectors in the dash for the gauges and lights. They all have power, all the idiot light that are suppose to be on with the car in run position and not running have power. So I think I have a circuit Board problem? Can i get a replacement some wheres?
