Dash light out again
Sunday I put new bulbs in my dash and everything worked fine.I start my car up today and the temp. light goes out.What could be causing the bulb to go out.Would cleaning the bulb socket contacts work and what would I clean them with?

Re: Dash light out again (tsquare)
Did you replace them from the front or the back? If you haven't seen 'em from the back, the carriers insert and twist to hold the bulb in place. The area of the PCB at 'full twist' on mine had the silver contact rubbed off. I just rotated the acrrier about 15-20 degrees and it's been fine ever since.
Now the repair to the center LCD when I cracked it is ANOTHER story! :eek:
