dash lights dont work after new cluster installed

Post by drifterz73 » Mon Jun 21, 2010 11:25 pm

Ok everyone, i recently put in a 98 r/t dash cluster with tach in place of my crappy indiglo cluster that came in my car. Now i have no dash lights but i have checked and all the lights work tested them individually. the indiglo dash lights worked as they had it wired to the defrost button. Any ideas.??

I have run into this problem with dome lights not working when I switched out clusters, and I was told that you need to replace yours with one from the same model year.

There are differences year to year and this may be your problem...
