SOURCE: M reg. C class.

Go to the dealer or shop online for a set of dashhooks or instrument cluster hooks. There should be two elongated holes on either side of the instrument cluster(on the black trim). You will insert the hooks, turn approx 90 degrees and pull the cluster out. Unplug the cluster from the back(don't worry, if you have the steering wheel all the way down and out from the dash, it will clear it). Then flip the cluster and take out the corresponding bulb(use some needle nose pliers). They just twist loose and yes you will have to go back to the dealer to get them.

SOURCE: front right turn signal bulb is burnt out

If you open your hood and look right behind the headlamp assembly you will see a gray release tang for the turn signal housing. Just press the tang and pull out the housing. The socket comes out of the housing with a 1/4 turn counter clockwise. Now replace the bulb. The 2 problems are not related so check your fuses and replace any that are blown. It's a good idea to test the fuses with the key on and all lights turned on with a 12 volt test light and not by eyeballing them.

Remove the metal part of the ashtray, you will see two screws that hold the ashtray plastic part on, underthis is the screws for the lower panel
You can now carefully lift the whole panel away.

I hooked up an after market stereo and now my speedometer lights don't work. Know why? On my 01 echo.

the bulb could have been bad, yet the aftermarket stereo wiring takes voltage from your dash, hence the illumination/dimmer. really dont need those wires. they hook up to your dash lighting, and draw power from your dash, take those wires out and see if any changes. Id first take the wires out, if no change then the bulbs are probably bad.

My taillights and rear parking and tag lights dont work but the front parking lights do

Are your dash lights out also? The tail and dash lights are wired on the same circuit and share the same fuse.If your dash lights are working then check the tail light bulbs, I know that it is rare but I have been fooled more than once by both bulbs being blown.

1988 pathfinder no dash lights no revers lights no tail lights no gaiges

If they all stopped working at the same time then it is probably a fuse or possibly 2. Check your fuse panels in the dash and under the hood. The dash lights and gauges should be a fuse labeled instrument cluster or guages, it is probably blown. The other fuse to look for will be the tail light fuse. This is where I would begin.

I have a 2003 pontic grand am i dont know why the interor lights, dash lights, and tail lights, aren t working at all! break lights work. right turn light works, left turn light clicks like 4 times faster...

The headlight switch is common to all your problems except the quick flash of the turn lights on one side the quick flash is usally a bad bulb as the tailights have two and one could be out and it'll still work just it changes the flash quicker with no load too little and it'll not blink just stay on. Theres fuses for the dash lights but the tailight fuse has to be good for it to get power. Any crash damaged lights need to be checked out as water getting into the sockets can mke a problem. The marker lights on the front do'nt work either. Fuse or headlight switch now remember that the radio has a light in it too and if someones changed the radio alot of aftermarkey readios don't use the run light as they are on withthe radio on and this wire may be touchin ground or be hooked up wrong at the lights the wire color is brown. It's highly unlikly that alot of bulbs failed at one but the car is old. Start with fuses and if the tail fuse is blown and it has an odd radio pull it disconnect it and try another fuse

High beam cutting out on and off

Your headlights are drawing too much power and tripping the breaker. Change back to stock lights. If you try putting a higher rated breaker or relay, you risk a wiring FIRE.

Dash lights

The dash is lit by one or more bulbs located on the edge of that clear plastic. You may be able to get to the lamp holder by reaching up behind the dash. If not there, then the dash will need to come off.
