How do tell which fuse is for the dashboard lights?

To identify the fuse that controls the dashboard lights, follow these steps:

1. Locate the fuse box in your vehicle it's usually under the hood or inside the passenger compartment.

2. Check the fuse box diagram this diagram is usually printed on the inside of the fuse box cover or in your vehicle's owner's manual.

3. Look for the fuse that is labeled as "Dashboard lights," "Instrument panel lights," or something similar.

4. If you can't find a specific fuse for the dashboard lights, you can check the fuses for the specific components on the dashboard, such as the speedometer, odometer, and fuel gauge.

5. Once you've identified the fuse for the dashboard lights, you can check if it's blown by visually inspecting it. A blown fuse will have a broken filament or a melted element inside.

6. If the fuse is blown, you can replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage.
