S14 Gauge Cluster Lights not working and some others??

Problem #1
Well I dont have any cluster lights in my 95 240sx now at all, havent now for about a month. checked all the regular fuses, even changed the bulbs on the back of the cluster. The only fuses that i have not check are the really big ones in and out of the engine bay. I have all the warning lights are working on the cluster and light up fine. Right now the only lites that light up are the volt meter gauge, the apexi turbo timer, greddy boost controller, and the boost and water temp guages. Anybody have any other ideas on what could be up?

Problem #2
I have not had any HVAC lights, the ones that light up so you can see where the air is coming from. the little green and orange lights on them work.

Problem #3
I'm installing a autometer sport compact series oil pressure gauge and was wondering what else that i would need to install it or anything else that i need to know about it.

its ur tcu. time control unit. i had this problem all the time with my s13. mines is a white little box next to the fuses in the driver side so it might be the same or different. you just need to hcange that

replace the dimmer control unit and the HVAC's and gauge cluster lights should work.

You're both wrong.

There is no TCU on S14s.

And the dimmer switch would effect all the dash illumination, including the radio, hazard and defrost switches, cruise switch, and the auto switch for the driver window. Unless those are all out also that's not the problem.

Sounds more like a load of bulbs are out. Replace them.

that's what i have done i replaced three bulbs on the cluster itself alone. The hazard and rear defrost works fine, those light up. It really pisses me off, cause you cant see a damn thing in their at night. I thought maybe the HVAC stuff is probably a loose wire that needs to be sured up. The Dash cluster though, i'm totally out too lunch. I'm fresh outta ideas. Now i dont know if those really big fuses control anything to the dash or not?!?
