Default some Cluster lights dont work

Well three of them, the check engine light has never come on (im sure it should have come on for something by now!), the seatbelt warning light, and the one that tells your trunk is open. I know that the seatbelt plugin things are unplugged, and the rear hatch door was replaced. How can I test the check engine light? and how could i get the the hatch one to work?

When you turn your car onto the on postistion, like when you let your fuel pump prime, you will see your seatbelt light, your CEL, and a few other lights turn on. If they dont turn on then you may need to pull out your cluster and switch the bulbs if they are bad... So go and do that now! LOL

And remember boys ang girls...

Yea just take it out and check the bulbs. I have some bulbs for sale if you need any. They should fit 96-00 civic clusters (not including the si cluster).
