Dash lights

Ok, I was hoping someone would pop back with info.

My info is to give some insight to guide what you may not have touched upon.

Here is a test you can do with doors closed, followed by some checks.

Set it switch on the dome light. If dome light works, then the problem could be the ground to the chassis that the dash lights are connected to. It is isolated from the body, so it requires a ground wire.

It may be loose, cut or disconnected.

If dome does not light up, check with park lights on, and test each connection at the connector for voltage. There should be at least one with power. If not, disconnect the headlight switch connector and reconnect, then test again.

Not sure about your year and may help in looking a wee further. My year has orange wires for the dash lights. If you can remove the connector and ohm the orange wire connector it should be very low resistance. Below 100 ohms. If greater like above 10k ohms, assuming you have good ground, a break between the connector and dash lights may be the problem. Meaning a possible cut or pinch, but most likely corrosion keeping good contact from switch to bulbs.

Not sure but my year uses a sub harness connector to connect the dash lights to the main harness if that connector if used in your year, may also cause an issue by light corrosion. A simple disconnection and reconnection should allow electrical contact at the pins.

With knowing a simple task of disconnecting and reconnecting a connector that is part of the system in question may be all that is needed. Just identifying the full path and working from beginning to end of where the voltage travels.

I think i have covered what may assist in identifying the issue.

First off thanks for all the help it was great. Second  turns out that it was the circuit board that's no good so now I am on the hunt for a good one I hope I can find one close by  so thanks again for your help Bob

You where right about the pin I lost part of the lights but there is also  a break in the  circuit board
