Took it out today and figured out why not of the lights work. Does anyone know if this can be fixed or should i get another one?

It could probably have a piece of copper foil soldered over it but I think I would just get a different printed circuit for it...

You could make a jumper but the printed circuits are available in reproduction and easy enough to swap.

I did Autometer gauges, just a thought...you can get them locally from Summit, and they drop right in. You can light them up green or amber

I made the jumper and still no lights, think i have i blown bulb wouldnt that cause the rest not to light up? I also have power to the gray wire when the headlights are on.

If the instrument cluster was changed from a three hole to a seven hole without rewiring the cluster plug that might happen. All of the bulbs would have to be blown if you don't have any lights as they work independently....
