Default Gauge Light Extremely Dim. Help

Ok so tonight when i started my 1998 Z28 Camaro to come home from work i noticed that my fuel battery oil and temp gauges were all very dim and hard to see. When i got home i checked my fuse and they were all good. Is there a light in the dash that illuminates this. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

There are six small bulbs (number 194?) within the gauge cluster. They are pretty easy to swap out .... I just did it a few weeks ago on my '99 Z. You'll have to take the cluster out of the dash, pull the back off of the cluster and then replace the bulbs. I bought them at Autozone.

Did you move the dial up and down that controls how bright or dim your lights are? Lol
