Electrical Woes

[ctidd]

1993 L300

Symptoms:

Neither dash-lights nor corner markers turn on with wand control, headlights, hi-beams, brake lights and turn signals are all fine.

Fog light switch remedies above issues.

Oil pressure light periodically illuminates with the key turned two clicks, but usually not. Went through a flickering stage couple months ago.

Light behind heater/ac control unit does not work. Did for a week once then it was gone again.

Low fuel light does not illuminate. Never seen it light up, but the needle works.

Checked all fuses, nervous to start digging behind dash.

Possible diagnosis:
Combo switch is fried
Something else is fried

Looking for:

Suggestions,
Expertise,
A covered place to start digging for answers
and someone to receive beverages, combustibles, or currency in return for their help.

Also, check the fusible links in the battery bay.

Sounds like typical Deli headlight switch dying problem,the oil light problem could be flaky oil pressure switch,the heater /AC light might be bad connections at the light bulb socket and you may not be going low enough to get the low fuel warning light on but i wouldn't make it a point to get there.
