Hey I was checking out an ek recently and it was fairly priced though I wasn't sure if the dash lights are suppose to go on when I turn on my head lights. And if it does how much would it cost to get it replaced? Broke college student so diy kits and stuff would be great

 

So it's not in your possession? Kinda hard, sorry, make that nearly impossible to diagnose a problem when you don't have the car. But yes, The dash lights are supposed to come on. It could be something as simple as a fuse.

 

This is exclusively a technical forum. Questions about cost/worth belong in the Value sticky at the top.

But as Marc says, a repair estimate is impossible until the problem is diagnosed.

 

Lights are suppose to turn on. Make sure dimmer switch isn't turned to off.

Next thing to check would be fuses and then light bulbs

 

The cluster bulbs are easy and inexpensive to replace anyway. Just determine what exactly the problem is before you buy the car. Don't want it to become a money pit if the problem is beyond what you think...
