turn single indicator bulb change

The right turn single indicator bulb on my 1972 f100 has burned out. How do I replace it? I looked behind the gauges and it looks like I have to remove the back of the gauges to change the bulb. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Yep undo the metal piece that is over the steering column and remove the screws to the dash bezel you should have the whole thing in your hands, oh ya don't forget to diconnect the speedo cable if ur good u can reach around behind the the cluster and turn the bulb holder clockwise i belive and remove the bulb without removing the speedo. But you should have the printed circuts in the 72 and you shouldn't have to split the cluster and the bezel to remove the bulb.

May I suggest at this time that you remove the cluster and do a complete cleaning of it,along with a bullb replacement.

You will notice a big difference after.

be careful that when you disconnect the plug that you gently pull it out straight, or the metalic parts of the printed circut will come loose and be a pain when you try to reattach.
