No Dash lights

Just got done replacing the headlight and dimmer switches on my 67 1/2 ton and have no dash lights now. Any Ideas on what it could be.

Re: No Dash lights

Dumb answer (no offense intended). Is the dimmer knob rotated to off?

When I bought mine, they didn't work. Found out all were burned out.

Bad new switch? I got a bad "new" switch right outta the box from the parts store once. Check the fuse to the cluster too.

In the box. Can't remember which exact one right off hand. I'd have to look at mine to remember.

Re: No Dash lights

It's labeled "pnl lights on the fuse box and is fed by a green wire from the head light switch. There is a gray wire from the fuse panel to the gauge cluster that feeds the lights in the cluster and also the heater control light and the glove box light.

Re: No Dash lights
