Please help with dash lights
Everything worked great in the interior, until I gave my car away to my windows taken out and re greased. I got the car back a month later since it was sitting at my dads shop. Now the high beams light and emergency light on the dash don't come on. What could it be? Is it just the light bulb? I don't want to take everything apart without knowing for sure. Could it be a fuse or anything else? All the other lights work great.
Thank you
Andrew

The 2 lights don't have a common fuse. The emergency light uses the GAUGES fuse and the high beam light has no fuse in the fuse box (its fused by the headlights fusible link which is not blown since the headlights work).
The common between the lights is ground,printed circuit and the large plug going into the back of the printed circuit.
The green wire that turns on the high beam indicator light and the green that turns on the high beams come out of the same connection so chances are very slim that it is dimmer switch related or even wire related.
So I would have to say ( unless they had the cluster out) the bulbs would be my #1 guess.
