In my 2006 Chevy Equinox, the odometer suddenly went all black; I suspect a blown fuse or maybe a tiny light bulb? Thanks to Google, I now know where the fuse boxes are in the Equinox, but was not given an owner's manual when I bought the car. How can I tell which fuse to test or replace?

    If the odometer is the only problem, I agree with Peter, I don't think the fuse is the problem? my.gm.com should have your owners manual.

SOURCE: license's plate light stopped working even with new bulb.

It wouldn't be a fuse if that's the only light that's not working, I believe all of the parking lights are on the same fuse. It's most likely a bad ground or corrosion inside the socket where the bulb makes the electrical connection. So check the socket to make sure it has no corrosion, if it does, clean it up and apply some dielectric grease (available at any parts store) to prevent future corrosion, and check for a loose or broken ground wire.

The fuse box you need is under the dashboard to the left of the steering wheel. The fuse you need is F2. It is next to the bottom one on the far left. There are 4 fuses on the far left. They are numbered F1-F4 from the bottom up. Good luck

No tail lights or dash lights on 2006 chevy equinox

I have a 2006 Equinox and I had no dash light and no tail lights. The fix was a fuse located in the passenger fuse box. It's labeled 10A PARK.

I have a chevy 2005 equinox and the light is out for the odometer!! Checked the fuses and they are good! What else could it be?

hi.
there are actually bulbs in the back of the clock units. if it is only one clock affected, then the bulb has probably blown. it is not particularly difficult to remove the clock unit and replace the bulb, but it can be very tricky finding all the clips and screws to do it.
your best bet is to get hold of a workshop manual for the car as this should have diagrams and photos showing exactly where the clips and screws are.

hope this helps

2005 chevy equinox headlights went out, only the driver side bright light works. Does this mean the passenger side headlamp is blown?

Sounds like you are right own...to change each bulb...you need to remove the chrome grill from the front center...be sure to pry up the clips carefully so not to break the trim bar...then each headlight assembly is removable with 3 10 mm bolts...do not touch your exposed fingers on the new bulbs...yes the low/high bulb is one unit...that is why I believe it is just your bulbs...about $11. each...Hope this helps.

The light for the odometer is out. How do I fix it? All of the other dash lights are working just fine.

The dash cluster has to come out, to get to the bulbs. The battery has to be disconnected. dash bezel around the cluster will pop off,usually a small flat screwdriver will help pop off the bezel. be careful not break the bezel, very thin abs material. after removing bezel, there will be maybe 4-6 small screws holding the cluster in. remove these screws and the cluster will pull out, be careful her also as there are wire behind here and connected to the cluster. the bulb will easily come out with a slight turn.

Green light on instrument panel

Hiya--the green headlamp logo on the instrument panel comes on automatically after you start up the engine.
The green light comes on when your headlight switch is on 'auto' until you turn it to 'parking lights' or 'full on' function, that'll turn off the green light...it's normal.
The other thing is if one of 2 headlight bulb reach the end of bulb life, the green light will flash on/off a few times then stay off....until you or the garage shop put in new headlight bulb.

Odometer stopped working, along with SOME of lites in dash board

Those bulbs may have just blown, or maybe a fuse is blown. But the odometer that is another thing, like maybe the cable but its not the neutral switch.
