The volt meter steadily dropped until the car wouldn't start. Manged to pop start it and get to where I could work on it.
The battery bulb never came on. I recall it did illuminate previously upon start up. Now... nothing. I have the car on charge, but the battery light doesn't come on at all. My wife is bringing me wrenches to take the binnacle off, but I managed to get my fingers behind the cluster and pull/swap the bulbs. They're fine. Test fine on a multimeter and are the correct 161 bulb. Swapped with other good 161's and different sockets. Nothing.
I just got done reinstalling my cluster. Could it be the big connector? If so, it's weird that all other instruments still work.
Thanks.
