Hello. My 65 mustang instrument panel lights work with the ignition off, but as soon as i turn the key to the on position they go out. Even while running the lights fail to turn on. Any ideas what could be causing this? My back tail lights stopped working completely aswell.

Thanks, Dustin

solved

:banghead:
solution is soo simple. lol. I just happened to touch the cluster to the dash with the vehicle running and the light switch on. saw a flicker of light and realized what was causing it. The instrument cluster has to be screwed in place in order for the lights to get a gorund. the whole cluster grounds out thru making contat with the dash
