Dash Lights Went Out - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I have an 85 4X2 Toyota Pickup. Recently the dash lights behind the heater controls all went out. The lights behind the guages and radio are still working. I don't see any blown fuses. Any ideas on what else to look for? I dread having to take apart the dash but it's kind of annoying driving at night and I can't find the heater controls! Thanks

it's an old truck, the bulbs have just gone out. they did that in mine a little while ago, it is not really that hard to replace them.

It appears to be more than one bulb behind the heater controls. Are you saying that all of the bulbs went out at the exact same time? Or is this a case where one bulb goes out and they all go out?

I finally got it. Yeah, it looked easy in the Haynes manual but the manual just didn't match my truck so I had to take off more plastic than the manual says to. I was surprised that it was only one bulb.
