on a 99/00 cluster there is one bulb that controls most of the illumination.. its located in the center on the back.. i dont know much about the 92-95. worst case scenario.. take it to the parts counter of your dealer and have them take a look at it. im sure the bulb only costs a few dollars and they will know where its located and how to change it.

Same thing happen to me on my 99 civic dude...all my bulbs were burnt out i changed em but nothin...and now my mph gauge dosent work either...but check evry fuse,light relay,harness..

check out your dimmer switch, had this problem and changed that and it worked, search as well cause this is a common problem in eg's. change dimmer switch FTW!!!

I am gonna plug my old one back in and see if works

The old one works fine... So i feel its the cluster. I am gonna change the cluster blubs from my old one and put it in the new one and see what happens

isumase

so when you plugged in the old one the lights did or didnt come on? cause if they came on it means you prolly got a bad switch. id go ahead and replace it cause theyre not too expensive and no other worries.

I took the bubls from the old cluster(which is the exactlly same as the blubs that were in the ex cluster) And put it in the ex cluster it still did not work.. Then i took those blubs that i just put in the in the ex cluster and put it back into the old cx cluster and it worked.. Soi now kno its the cluster is there any thing i can do to fix this... Everything works fine except that...

talked to my friend today - whos car the cluster came from, and he says it works 100% and did the entire time he had it. he even said that hed be glad to take it back and use it... so something doesnt add up. if you dont want it, send it back. we have unfinished business to take care of as it is.
