I own a '99 Accord Ex V6 coupe and some of the dash lights up and some of it is dark. Half of the speedometer is dark, as is the odometer. Also, my dash clock is dark and sometimes the light comes so I can see the temperature and where the fan is blowing. Are there lightbulbs behind the dash that I need to replace? The fuses are fine.

. Test all under hood and under dash fuses with a test light or multimeter:

Visual inspection is really not good enough.

. Check the ignition switch for wear, pitting, or melting:

. Remove the IP and replace bulbs, if all else fails and the car is operational in all regards (except dash illumination).
