High beam indicator light

I recently took the dash board and the instrument cluster out to clean. When I put it all back together my blue high beam indicator light was not working. Does anyone have any ideas? The only thing that I can think of right now is to take it back out and clean connections around each lit bulb and add some dielectric grease.

Thanks

That is probably what you are going to have to do. I would think you could reach it from the bottom. If you cab do that all you need to do is wiggle the connection/socket a bit and you should be good. It is a good idea to remove/reinstall the cluster from the front piece by piece that way you can check and correct any issues you have with the bulbs while reassembling. It beats taking the entire cluster fixture completely back out just to replace/adjust a few bulbs. I know how fragile the green hued plastic housing is getting at this age. That thing is really squeezed into that steel dash face. Easy does it. I have one I must take apart soon if you want some pictures. Good Luck.
