Default Instrument cluster wiring for 78

My instrument lights went out sometime yesterday, everything else still works. I checked all the fuses on the fuse block and I tried finding the wiring but my Hays manual seems to be missing this much needed info.

Thanks in advance for your help.

yep; go by your local Corvette repair shop and get the wall poster sized wiring diagram. But DON"T expect it to be any easier to follow than a needle in a haystack!

Spiru,
Here is a copy of the complete electrical manual for the 78 Vette.

One of the forum members has this on the net. Tuneport, I think. Many thanks go out to this individual. Has some other great stuff too.
