Dash lights and turn signal lights not functioning after fixing odometer 850 1994

Had success after rebuilding the odometer and setting it to the approximate mileage. The small gear was messed up. Quite an experience the first time, but now the dash lights and turn signal indicator lights are not functioning.

Perhaps did did not install any of them correctly? Did not put new ones in.
Ideas and suggestions welcome,

dick

    After you replace all four dash lights, bought at your local auto parts store, ensure the connectors for everything are seated correctly. One mm makes a big difference and some of those connectors are very hard to push together.
    Test the lights before putting the cluster back in the dash, there is enough room to do that.
    Your turn signals may be loose at the relay.

      Klaus:

      Thanks for the reply. I hate to ask, but where is the turn signal relay? I must have pulled something loose if that is what it is.

      Got my turbo today and hoses for coolant etc. change, so looks like another fun filled grease covered weekend here in TX.

        Most of the relays are under the left indash speaker. You cannot reach them without breaking a few arm bones. Just check the connector wires, I doubt that a relay came loose. Especially after installing the new intermittant wiper relay from IPD, they just don't come loose!

    Dash lights: one works, so that just means signal lights dead. Have to do some more bulb replacemet.

      I got a lot of my information from Bay 13 and followed their information. Dash removal for bulb replacement in in their web also. Disassembly of the instrument panel is not, so if after checking their site you need more information, let me know. It takes time and patience, especially the first time. I got the gear from one of their suggested sites for approx. $30.
