Dash Gauges

perhaps i didnt look hard enough, but i didnt see a post with the same problem as i have. for whatever reason i can dim the gauges in my cluster(speedo, tach, etc..) but i cannot really make them bright at all and the clock in the center is not lit either. what is this from? is it an easy fix? thanks.

could it be that the light bulb is 14/15 years old?

I don't know about a S14 but pulling the dash cluster from a S13 is easy. Just take your time and don't bust anything. Oh and use Polarg 194 bulbs...they burn brighttttttt!
