Ok, a few nights ago i turned on my headlights and the backlights on my cluster were working fine, i hit a small bump in the road and the entire cluster went dead of light... This is on my 92 5.0L I checked the fuses and their fine. Took out the cluster and only one bulb is burnt (which i knew about) i had a few spares laying around from another cluster that i have that worked and put them in but still no light. So my question is... When God said let there be light, what did he inted for me to do to get my cluster to light up again?

My guage lights were out since last july. I have been driving the car since october though, without guage lights. Its not that big of a deal. The lights on your shift indicator are they out aswell? Cause if they are its gotta be afuse just switch the 5amps around. If that doesnt work, is there a dim switch? cause that could be it i just pulled mine out two days ago cleaned it and put it back in. Now i have guage lights.

So just switch the fuses around, and check your grounds/switches. as posted above.
