hi my el wagon had two blown dash lights (speedo) i changed them with led ones,
and now i noticed that the odometer is dim (no light) could this have been caused by the new led lights? i read that there is two lights in it and thought it odd that both blew at the same time.any help is greatly appreciated

I do not think that the LED globes are suitable, replace them with the std incandescent type globe.
