72 c10 high beam indicator

Ok last thing to tackle and trucks back up to par.. Didn't have gauge lights and working gauges except fuel and oil pressure until just this week they been down for a few years now... Bought a second cluster and took two and built one... Every gauge works and the dash lights I got fixed... Now my high beam indicator did work before I got the dash lights working.. After I got dash lights working again I switched from lows to highs and the lights work just the red light on the dash doesn't light up... Help to steer me in which direction I need to look at anyone? I suck at wiring but I feel accomplished so far
Thanks
Tim

Re: 72 c10 high beam indicator

Check the light green wire on the cluster plug for 12 volts. If you have it the connection may be bad on the cluster or the circuit board strip may be broken to the light. Assuming you know the light bulb is good. Remember to have the high beams on.

Re: 72 c10 high beam indicator

I doubt it's the dimmer switch if it still works by kicking lights high and low but I could be weong
