Dashboard lights Question

I have only one light that resides over the heater control levers. Isn't there suppose to be two? I can't see the sockets, but it feels like there are two of them back there. Only having the one light does not illuminate the panel completely.

Anyone know for sure?

i think there are two or none. you may have one burned out. the best way to get to it is by taking out the clock or clock delete plate.

If you are right, then I am missing the plastic piece the bulb sets in and the corresponding wiring for the second socket. I will check again tonight when I install the tachometer I just got from the Big Brown Truck.

There are in fact supposed to be two sockets. I had the same problem and ordered another socket from Rock Auto (needs a little modification to fit). Easy fix and looks great.

Good to know. I am pretty sure I only have one, so I will be visiting Rock Auto to pick up another one.

Thanks again
