From personal experience with this, I took my Multimeter with me to my local pick-a-part yard, along with some tools. I took a couple of Phillips and Flathead screwdrivers to be exact. For my local yard, I only paid $1.00 for admittion. I walked through all of the foreign cars and looked for a lot of Nissans that were of the same era as my 1992 Nissan Stanza. I found that several cars in there had similar switches of the dashboards. What you need to do is use the screwdrivers to take apart the dashboard, and unplug all of the switches from the wires that hold it into the dashboard. Use the flathead screwdriver (from the back side) and un-"click" the switches from the panel of the dashboard. Some of the switches use light bulbs that screw on from the outside, some other ones you'll have to take apart the entire switch to change the lightbulb with. And one might even just be a LED that can't be changed (to my understanding). I believe the Dimmer switch used the LED that can't be changed, and the Emergency Flasher used the internal bulb that you would have to take the entire switch apart to get access to. The others (cruise control and rear defogger) used the external screw-in bulbs. Set the Multimeter to the Ohm position, and use the "buzzer" option, so that the Multimeter will "buzz" when you probe one side of the lightbulb to the other. It will "buzz" if the bulb is good, and it won't make a sound if the bulb is dead. I've tested many many light bulbs and only had a few good ones in the end, but I was able to make my dashboard light up again. What's very complicated is the Heater and Air Conditioning control, as that's pretty wired in there. However, since you have the panel off for the switches, there are 2 very easy bulbs to change - the ones all the way on the far left for the Air Intake for off or on. Those use the same sort of bulbs as the Emergency Flasher switch uses, but I believe they're a different size. They have little rubber feet on them, and they're rectangular. The switches that use the bulbs that come off from the outside are round and twist in with a flathead screwdriver. If your Dimmer switch is burned out, you'll probably have to get another switch. In my car, my one worked, so I haven't changed mine. My local yard told me to keep the bulbs, as they're too tiny of an item to charge for. However, your local yard might be different. When I was at my local yard, I talked to someone who was walking around, and I told him what I was after. He said that he had the same thing with his wife's car (different manufacturer though), and he said that they charged like $9.00 per bulb to replace at the dealership. I'm not too certain about the Tail lights, as mine worked when I bought the car. When I bought my car, the entire dash was out, except for my Dimmer switch, my gauges, and a part of the radio. All the rest of my buttons were out and my entire heater control was burned out as well. Good luck with that, and I hope I've helped you in some way. Part of my answer might be incorrect, as I can't exactly remember how everything was, but I remember quite a bit of it. I only did this a few weeks ago with my car.
What else can I help you with?
Why won't the brake lights on your 1991 Nissan Stanza turn off?
Nissan cars have 1 or 2 rubber grommets located under the dash next to the brake pedal. The rubber grommets get old and fall out from time to time. They need to be replaced. "cost about 3.50 each from Nissan dealer." hope this helps
