Indiglo Gauge Problem

My Indiglo Gauges will get dimmer and brighter at will... there seems to be no pattern to it. Could there be some kind of short somewhere? I was not the one that installed the indiglo gauges in the car (the previous owner did), so I am not really familiar with anything.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Shawn

Indiglo / reverse indigo's don't have a very long life span.

i installed my first set 3 years ago and they went dead about 3 months ago.

However there is a good chance the ground connected to the rear of the gauge cluster is loose.

you can take the gauges apart and check that.

also, find the dimmer switch (for the indiglos) and make sure it is not shorting. sometimes the contacts wear or get dirty, then you don't get a good connection.
