73 duster dash lights

None of the dash lights work, heater lights, shift indicator..nothing except the dome light works, what could be the problem??

Did you read anything I posted?

Did you make any checks?

Do you have power AS DESCRIBED at the instrument fuse?

In other words what have you done?

You can't just sit here and guess. Neither can we

I do not have a 73 shop manual. If you have the older style fuse panel, your wiring is likely much closer to 72 than 74 which is what I posted

Here is the download thread. Download the 72 shop manual

Somewhat useable, but not exactly complete, are diagrams from MyMopar:

Regardless of the type of fuse panel, you STILL have a tail fuse supplying power to the tail/ park/ dash circuits of the switch

You STILL have an inst. fuse which is the output of the dimmer control. This fuse will be on one end of the fuse panel.

Look at diagram "A" above. The inst. fuse is the very top fuse, in the top right of the diagram. Notice the tan and orange wires

Go to diagram "B" Follow tan in from top left, down the page and there's the light switch. This wire as I said in the earlier post is the OUTPUT coming OUT of the dimmer control. You will not have power there unless the TAIL fuse is good and the light switch is ON, either park or head, AND the dimmer control must be turned somewhat to the LEFT

That power would be coming TO the light switch on the PINK wire, which if you follow it up and to the left and off the page, and back onto diagram "A" it goes to the third fuse from the top which is the TAIL fuse.
