i hopped in my car this afternoon and the gauge cluster was almost totally dark i could barely read the rpms and the speed, but you could tell that it was there, i tried to brighten the display using the buttons and i checked all of the fuses,....i have a 00' anyone experienced or heard of this???

 

Lights on?

 

When\If your lights are on, hold the + and the cluster will get brighter.

 

yeah i know about the buttons.
im saying that its not the buttons and its not teh fuse........anyone know what else could be going on?

 

this may sound dumb, but make sure you know where all of the fuses are, because on my 98 Accord, I had no gauges or Tail lights, and i checked the fuses in the drivers side dash and under the hood, and couldn't figure out what was wrong. Turns out there is an identical fuse box on the passenger side in the dash that i didn't know about. I don't know where they are in the s2k, but i am sure someone on here will.

 

This is a totally new one for me. Try posting in underthehood as well.

 

Weak battery.

 

....Never heard of this before....and if the car starts..I doubt its a weak battery

 

Bad wiring?

BTW, my last block of the fuel gauge is gone.

So, when there is only one block remaining, mine shows none.

Any idea about what whould be hapening?

 

My car started even though my gauge cluster went almost completely out. it was about 2 startups later that it died. Answer for it was...dead battery. Just telling my expieriance.
