Ok so heres the deal, my cluster now operates almost 100% now i changed the speed sensor, however only half my cluster(speedo side) lights up at night , the side the shows temp and rpm gauge doesnt light up, is there a seperate fuse for each side?? ALSO my cel does light up at all on start up or due to codes, anyone have ideas on what i could possibly break it down to? My center clock also doesnt work i dont know if its linked or not but i figured id throw it out there...

 

Just check the bulbs out back.

 

Since I got my Maxima my center clock has always not worked. Until one day I decided to put pressure on it. Not on the lcd itself just the surrounding area. Now it works when ever it wants to, if im not mistaken its a common problem on the 4th gens. Something to do with one of the resistors being loose.
As for the gauges and the CEL u would need to remove them and replace the lights.

Here's a video tutorial I found on youtube:

So the chances of the bulbs on that one side being ALL dead are what?? and im not too concerned with my clock i know what it comes down to...either replace the clock from the junkyard...or...deal with it... lol but ill double check the bulbs cause i ran all fuses breakers relays etc and so far all is good, so i guess time to take it apart and replace the bulbs see if that works
