Overhead gauges

Over head gauges, by rearview mirror. Compass, mpg, miles left til empty, outside temp, etc... Lights have gone out, or has stopped working all together. Any helpful hints on where to start to get these working again.
Sorry such a minor, technical problem i need help with, but FTE is the best. You can find out ANYTHING you need to know from this site!!!

Yep, most common fix for it.

This site definitely pays for itself *cough cough, become a supporter*. My overhead computer was bad, started pricing replacements, I was looking at $200 to get a new one back up. Learned about this simple fix and I was good to go. Cost me about 15 minutes of my time. Definitely made me feel good I saved that kind of money on something so simple.
