My instrument panel no longer illuminates when the headlights are on. I've checked that it's not dimmed. I'm thinking maybe the fuse has gone.
Which fuse controls this? I looked in the manual but I don't see any specific mention of that fuse in the lists of which fuses control which function.
Thank you.
-   And how much would THAT cost? I have the same issue. The speedometer and tach are fine (light up), but I can't see my gear selector or heating knobs in the dark. Just bought this used. Anyone know if these are SUPPOSED to light up? There is a small green light underneath each airflow setting (feet, defrost, cabin, feet & cabin etc), but I can't see the settings themselves, or the force of air (0,1,2,3,4) dial. Did these ever illuminate when the car was new? I have no frame of reference having bought the car this way. Same with the gear selector... can't see what gear I'm in at all. I have to assume this used to be backlit somehow. -   dj ali

-   Instrument panel lights out 1997 Legacy outback wagon? Fuse or lamps out?-   Guest
in my galant the problem ended up being resolved by my pulling out the entire instrument panel and all 5 or 6 or 8 bulbs were blown. It cost less than 10 dollars. just be careful though...i removed some of the instrument needles which i didn't need to do and lost one in the dash somewhere and lost some of the calibration as well. the whole panel just comes out and you can remove and insert bulbs easily from the back side. havent resolved the lighting problem with my shift lights though, they come and go and i sometimes cant see the gear finder either. but i can see my gauges now so that is a relief. no more small flashlights........!my gear shifter is center seat on the floor.

The cruise light will not come on until u hold the set button and then turn the cruise on. Then after it comes on it flashes and the cruise control does not control the speed, the light just flashes. This is on a 1994 nissan maxima!

when i push on the gas I get a delay in acceleration, the rpm go up to 5-6 then it accelerates. Some times it's up to a 2 second delay which is very dangerous. I'm not a lead foot but when I go to pass at highway speed it sometimes shifts down to maybe 2nd gear. Seems out of control, it also shifts up and down at about 40 mph. I always have to play w/the gas. Hills are a major problem.

I lost traction and my 07outback slid backwards down my driveway, about 100ft. When I finally stopped and was stuck, my cruise control was flashing, and my check engine light was on also.
