SORRY! "with that antiquated looking dash" wasn't sure where you where. "yes..we use to call them "*****!"....No help here except I think that 96 has a boatload of fuses. Good luck.

I recently fixed my Heater/AC control backlight, and the one for my rear wiper switch(both had burned out bulbs)
Transfer case selector, and Gear indicator both have backlights on mine also. They all come on with the parking lights, and all dim with the dash dimmer function of the headlight switch.

Thanx for the replies.FireHawk068 is right.Just replaced the funny looken things that were in there with new #37 bulbs(fog,wiper,and defrost back lights)and alls good.What was in there was not a bulb.It kinda look like some sort of diode.Definitly not a glass light bulb.
