Headlight & Fog light Indicator on Gauge Cluster Out

Hello,

A few months ago, my headlight indicator went out, and I figured it was a simple bulb that I needed to replace. My foglight indicator still worked fine. Well, I ordered a cluster bulb from STM, took my cluster out, and looked for the spot where the bulb would go, but found nothing. I could not figure out where the heck it went since there was no socket, or even a burnt bulb to be found. Today, I get in the car, turn my headlights on, then turn my fog lights on, and nothing! Both the headlights and fog lights work perfectly fine, but the gauge cluster indicators lights are both out!

What the heck am I missing here? Please help!

I've included a video.



Thanks.

-Jalal

I'll have to check for it.

Anyone else with experience with this? A bunch of guys locally have this same problem but don't seem to have tried to find a solution. It's annoying as hell to me.

Help!!!

i just did the whole led on my gauge cluster. i know its gonna be little different between yours(9) and mine(8 without acd), but i believe the bulbs for the fogs/light indicator should be located the same. Mine wasnt lighting up before i swapped few of the bulbs on the cluster with my new leds, but then since i had extra non-leds laying around, i just plugged them into a place where it wasnt lighting up. and there it goes, my fog/light indicator on the cluster now. I really dont feel like taking my whole interior apart again, but i will update you with pictures. your best bet is playing with bulbs(make sure one lights up than switch that one into the one thats missing or not lighting). In that way, you can figure out which ones are bad, just time consuming. good luck, and ill try to get back to you asap.
