Well, My 1998 Ford Mustang (V6 & Automatic) is on the Fritz, Basically, the little panel that tells me what gear the car is in (Park, Drive, Reverse, 1st, and 2nd) is for some reason NOT lighting up anymore. So basically when I drive at night I have to turn on the light inside the car so that I can see what I am doing. I am nearly positive that this problem is relatively easy to fix, but I need advice on where to start and what to look for. I dont think it is a fuse problem because the majority of them are brand new... but I guess nothing is beyond the realm of possibility...

First thing to do is check your fuse panel.
Actually, the first thing to do is to make sure you don't have the switch that turns on the accessories lights, just turned off.
Then Check the fuse box for the fuse for your lights to your dash board. The fuse box is typically located on the driver's side near the kick panel.

check your fuses to see if any are blown. if not than go buy an electrical tester and start tracing the wires to see if there is a bad ground or connection. maybe the light is burned up?
