Previous owner put LEDs instead of bulbs in the car but they crapped out, and now I can not read how fast I'm going at night. It's a reason I got a ticket last time...

I ripped out the LEDs that were in place of the bulb the guy soldered them, then I placed the 194 bulbs, but they do not turn on

Any one has ever had this problem?

check your fuses and grab a mulitmeter and check if your getting 12v to the cluster.

Led's don't burn out they are a Diod ( Light Emitting Diod ).
