Default spedometer light probem

so this should be a new one, when I turn on just my lights and the inside lights that are controlled by the dimmer switchcome on, the lights on my spedometer are blacked out but only from about 60 mph to 100, not the whole thing. Kinda weird but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I already tried just turning the dimmer **** off and on but it wont fix it. I just don't know how it could be just that one little section, and not the whole dash. Thanks

Probably just a blown bulb dedicated to that section of the cluster. Fix = Pull out the cluster and replace the bad bulb.

Default Cluster light

So one of your bulbs were out causing all the other bulbs to be off? I have the same problem when my engine is cold, there is a delay of about 50 seconds before it comes on after turning on the head lights. Please let me know?
