Default Gauge Lights Out

[:'(]Does anyone know why my gauge lights aren't working on my 97 Spyder Eclipse? The turn signals, and check engine light work (i need to get that checked out too...) I have replaced any and all broken fuses in all my boxes. I recently bought some little aftermarket stick on lights to illuminate my dash, but the wires to my AC adapter are getting quite annoying... Please help

well to check the ground it shouldnt be too hard. I think the ground is usually near the fuses under the steering wheel. And the bulbs youll have to take off the dash to get to, but that shouldnt be too hard either. Id start with the wiring first then look at the bulbs. Should be one of those

the only thing i can suggest is to take a look at a haynes manual. You can get them for like $20 at any auto parts place. Maybe someone else will no a place online that has pics, but i dont know of any for that stuff
