Gauge Cluster AND dash lights AND R D N lights dont come up... help pls
I have the common gauge cluster problem thats stickied at the top of the thread. However I also hav a problem with the rest of my controls such as climate and radio. None of them turn on properly. Some of them work some of them dont. Climate control lights up but of course LCD is burned out
On top of that my Parking, Reverse, Drive lights where the shifter is doesnt come on either.
Seems like a bigger problem than just the cluster. Anyone have experience with these other issues?

Your climate control LCD being burnt out is a seperate issue also. What do you mean its burnt out? The green lights turn on but your screen is blacked out, or what exactly? If the screen is blacked out then follow this tutorial:

If the green black lights don't turn on, the follow this tutorial:

Thanks for the reply suneet, i figured that since all 3 issues were going on at the same time.. that it may be some other bigger issue with the electrical stuff.
I will try the shifter bulb first thanks for that suggestion. My cluster will be sent out to mrwhizard. I just havent read anything yet about anyone having them all out at the same time.
My climate control LCD is barely readable. I can only make out the very top. Looks like lcd burned out but it still lights up. All my o ther dash lights are off.

They are seperate problems. The lights near your shifter are not on because the bulb down there is probably just burnt out. You have to remove the wood trim, then reach under and twist the bulb holding assembly and pop it out from the shifter trim piece (The black piece around the shifter).

Ah man, I had a feeling this would happen. I replaced the #74 bulb yet it the light for the shifter still wont light up with the new bulb installed. Tried two bulbs, same thing
Its funny because my ac/radio lights turn on when the headlights are NOT on. However when i turn the headlights on everything is black.

So I was driving down the road at night when my cluster lit up at full brightness. I turned the dial to dim the cluster, but noticed that I could not brighten it up again. Well I turned the dial too far down and blacked out my cluster and AC lights.
Like your issue, if I turn the headlights OFF, my cluster and AC lights up again.
Anyone know what the issue could be? The rheostat seems "broken", as in the cluster is a fixed brightness when the headlights are off no matter which way I turn the dial.

I spun the dimmer switch both ways endlessly last night and the lights never came back on.
I started the car up this morning in the garage (auto headlights on) and the cluster was lit again? Pulled out into the daylight and it still worked. The dimmer switch seemed to be working again.
