Thanks all for the help, got the bulb out from the speedometer side and it
looked good so I tried putting in the one for the clock side which was
working and it also didn't work on the speedo side and the middle one
doesn't work either even with the bulb that I know is good from the clock
side. What would be the next step.

Also the temp and gas gauge come on and off. I can get them to stay on by
pulling out the big plug that connects all the ribbon strip. Pulling it out
a little or wiggling it a little makes them come on. But doesn't do anything
for the lights.

Can someone tell how to remove an instrument panel bulb? The one for the
speedometer on my 84 Vanagon is not working and I want to take it out to
look at it. I have tried pulling and turning the small plastic housing
around it but no luck. Thanks, deek
