Hi guys-
 
 I'm in the process of replacing the diff lock panel (Thanks Dennis!) in my 85.
I had  three aftermarket gauges in place of it, but thought it better to put the panel back in. 
 
I figuerd out all of the wiring and the panel from Dennis had the harness with it.
 
Moved my boost and oil temp gauge (mechanical Autometers) to the top of the dash.
I tapped power from one of the blue/white wires from the harness and ran the ground directly to the body for the gauge lights. All worked fine until I buttoned it up!
 
Now, no console lights, gauge lights, diff panel lights, ash tray light or heater panel lights. But, all the dash panel lights work. 
 
After testing, it appears the harness is not getting power to the BL/WH wire that feeds it from the light switch. 
 
Hmmm....could be I just answered my own question! Check the light switch?
 
Gary
