    Speedometer bulbs

    I have my speedometer out of my 72E and one of three three bulbs is not currently working. It is the the one on the green/white wire. The other two bulbs are on black/blue wires and are on when the light switch is on. Does anyone know if the green/white wire bulb is activated from another switch? The reason I started this project was because the ground wire came off the speedometer and none of the three bulbs worked.

    White/Green

    White with Green Stripe is for the green parking light at the bottom of the speedometer.

    Black/Blue

    The Black with Blue Stripe lights are for the gauge illumination and come on when the light switch is pulled to the first and second position. The green parking light indicator at the bottom of the gauge only comes on when the light switch is pulled out to the first position and goes back out when the light switch is pulled to the second position. If the green parking light does not come on at all, check if the bulb is burnrd out.

    Problem Resolved

    George
    Appreciate the reply you were spot on, light now comes on when light switch is pulled to first position. You saved me a lot of time. Thanks
