Problem with gauge cluster lights

A buddy of mine just picked up a 1979 Bonanza a few days ago and said that the lights in the gauge cluster dont come on. I have a 1972 Cheyenne and dont have any experience with this model of truck. Do you think it could be fuse? What do yall think?

Re: Problem with gauge cluster lights

Could be a fuse. Could also be something as easy as the headlight switch dimmer is turned all the way to the left or possibly burned out bulbs. Does he have lights anyplace else, heater control, wiper switch? When I picked up my 80, every single bulb was bad, as hard as that was to believe. I figured I had a problem somewhere else because not a single one was lit, then I started checking bulbs.
