No instrument gauge lights or push button lights - 64 Dart

Nigel:
Thank you for your input. I will give that a go tonight. Admittedly, I used a file as well but did not clean the majority of the surface. I'll clean it well and test with an continuity meter after. Thanks again.
Hi Dartcruiser, well worth a try, costs nothing. Although I will say I unbolted the fuse box from the dash shell so I could get good access to it and see what I was doing rather than scratching around lying on my back. 1964 Dart GT... Good luck with it...
