Pull your cluster. It should have little twist in bulb holders on the back. Probalby just a bad bulb. Look at Keiths tutorials at top of main page, should have some pics to give you an idea on what your working with.

:yt: here is the link to the page where you can see the back side of the instrument panels that peanutman is talking about. http://www.fordification.com/67-72ID.htm

Here is a closer picture of how they are mounted. just turn this black knob 1/4 - 1/2 turn counter clockwise and pull it out, then replace the bulb. The bulb will be attached to this black knob. My advice is to replace all the bulbs while you are there as the others are probably getting ready to go, or will as soon as you put it back together. :roll: :2cents:
