It seems as though the light behind the left side of the tachometer in my 94 mx6 is burned out. It went out for a few days, and then it came back on for about day, and now it has been out for a few weeks. Is it difficult to get at the bulb? Could it be something else? I also noticed my right fog light, two front side marker lights, and one rear liscense plate light are out. Could it be an electrical problem, or is it just time to start replacing bulbs?

pull out the lights and check em first. if the bulb behind the dash came back on, its probly not burned out. most likely a bad connection. but check the bulbs first. it took me about 15 mins to pull my gauges. not too hard

I guess if you're taking the dash off and removing the tach for the first time it could get a little difficult. It's jsut a matter of getting all of the screws out and removing the middle air vents. Other than that, it's just a matter of undoing some screws and removing the tach.

Funny, I have the same problem. My left side tach light has been out for some time. As a side note, I had to replace most of my side bulbs and rear bulbs about 6 months ago. I think they had just reached the age where they need replacing as I have had no problems since. I have a 94 LS as well.

Being a novice, I wouldn't even begin to know how to take apart my guages to get at the offending light. Is there a website that might provide assistance?

wow

Well that is somewhat reasuring to find that you have the same problem! I was hoping it wasn't an electrical problem of some kind. That would suck big time.

If you go ahead and take the dash out, let me know how it goes--or even if you just get more information. I'll be sure to do the same for you.

Thanks,
