Instrument lights not working on 03

[tbirdtoms60]

My dash lights on my 03 aren’t working. I’ve been told it is the FEM. How many of you have had this problem, and who fixed it?

I've not personally experienced this issue myself, but many others here have. Here's a few links that may help you out in terms of removing the module and then sending it out for repair (or acquiring a replacement).

Its a common problem unfortunately...if your gearshift indicator also does not light (e.g. the PRND5/D4) its almost certainly the FEM and will require repair (not cheap).
