Guage Needle Illumination?

Something has gone wrong with my guage illumination ( '98 3.2TL). The gauages (speedo, tac, and fuel) all have back illumination but the needles suddenly don't light up, thus making it difficult to determine speed, etc at night. They all went out at once, thus making me believe it was just a fuse, but I don't believe there is a fuse that controls this. Anyone have any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Corey

Check all of your fuses. I believe that the fuse is under the hood but I'm not to sure. If not then the bulb might of blown. This is interesting.

It sounds like you need to change the little bulbs on the top of cluster. Thats what lights up needles.

If that's the case then they are 74 bulbs. LED conversion FTW!
