Gauge Light Problem On 48 Commodore

edited November -1 in HUDSON
My temp, fuel gauge and electric clock illumination lights all just stopped working. I checked the bulb on the clock and it looks fine and there is still electric power to the clock. My speedometer gauge light still works...

Are the temp, fuel and clock lights connected together in some way? Is there a common fuse or is this just a short somewhere? Thanks

    assuming factory wiring

    the light feed should have a rheostat (bakelite splitter on supers)with a single wire that goes to the speedometer and the pair plugged into the second output going to the temp/fuel cluster and the clock. look to this junction for your problem

    the only "fuse" is the circuit breaker for the entire lighting system mounted on the switch itself

    It was the rheoshat connection. The wire had come un-plugged. Thanks!
