Gauge lights will not come on
Thanks, Do you where I should check for ground?? I had put the ground lead of my meter on the tach frame and the + meter lead on the light switch and did get 12 volts. By the way is this brick inverter under the dash?
Thanks
Nelson

It was a black shielded cable hanging near the rheostats but did not see any place where it would of attached to. I think the other end goes somewhere towards the front of the bus. I will have to take the front off tomorrow and try to find it. It's strange that both the dash & gauge lights went off at the same time.
