Gear Selector and Headlight selector not lighting up?

[lowndes8]

Hi,

On the weekend i removed part of my center console to give it a clean. Last night was the first time i drove it at night and i have noticed that the gear selector lights and the headlight selector are no longer lighting up?

Anyone know what the issue would be?

I checked i plugged in all wires and they are all connected?

bad connection at the bulb, will have to pull it all apart and test them unfortunately.

Might be possible that something has shorted depending on how aggressive your clean was.
Check fuses?

I've been curious about my headlight switch bulb not working either , and how do you remove the switch

If it's anything like the VT/VX the dash needs to come out.

They don't like to make things simple do they .

Here you go, it isn't difficult, but the globes are small grain of wheat 12v globes and have to be desoldered, and re-soldered in. Easier to just get a replacement switch.
