Ok i switched the bulbs on my gauge lights..(the one by the gas was blown..and i went ahead and switched to red lights..point being...the light behind the gas tank level is one of the three you switch right? if not i'll have to go switch it..also...is there a separate fuse for the gas gause light(sounds dumber now that i asked it).......i only switched three of the 194 bulbs..should i have switched the last one in the corner to do the gas level gauge?

Well, last night my gauge cluster lights were out. It turned out when I was checking fuses I had placed the one for the tail lights in a vacant slot. Are your tail lights out also? Putting the fuse back into the right slot fixed it. BTW, that fuse is in the fourth slot from the bottom on the right column of fuses in the cabin fuse box on my '93.
