Oil pressure gauge

87 Turbo, digital dash actually works (two power units later) but the oil pressure gauge appears dead. Is the fix expensive, if not, what do I need to know?

Also, backlit ac/heat console in dash is dark. Are there bulbs that can be replaced without yanking the whole dash? Appreciate help. Even from someone who hasn't yet turned 16!

Okay, you should investigate you sending unit for your oil pressure gauge. Yes, there are lights that illuminate the liquid crystal display, and I'm not certain if they can be replaced, I don't have a Digital cluster. I'm sure more people will help more than I can.

The digital cluster is a pain in tailpipe. But the car is otherwise in very nice shape. I'm coming up to 150K miles and it's beginning to look a little long in the tooth. A paint job would help and it's time to see someone about the seats for upholstery. But when I put my foot on the gas, that turbo kicks in and so does my smile! More grins per gallon!
