dash lighting dimming?

My gauge panel is very dim by the lower left corner, where the temp gauge is. The rest of the gauges light up fine most of the time, but sometimes they all get pretty dim (like some kind of short. Anyone run into this before? BTW, it's a 93 GT.

Take the cluster out and check it with a meter. You might have a bad trace or a messed up/corroded socket. That or a bad bulb.

before you tear everything apart try moving the dimmer switch back and forth a few times. The dimmer switch can sometimes get corrded and just need the contacts cleaned by moving it
