Dash EL Inverter Locations

[Curt Sprenger]

Bill,
I replaced the original inverters, got them from Stephen. The upper EL
panels came alive after R&R the inverters. Now they don't come alive.
The trouble is most likely me working in the upper dash, and I caused
the problem.

Do you recall if the inverters 12VDC feed is fused?
