Some Buick Century owners report experiencing intermittent dashboard light failure even after replacing the bulbs. This issue may be due to an underlying electrical system problem or a malfunctioning sensor. Additionally, some owners find that the dashboard dimmer switch may be turned down or off, which can be a simple fix. A blown fuse is another common reason for dashboard light failure that should be inspected. In some cases, the turn signal switch may be the culprit, especially if manipulating the switch lever affects the dashboard lights. Owners also report that cleaning contacts with WD-40 or electrical contact cleaner can help resolve the issue if dirty contacts are the cause. If these troubleshooting steps do not fix the problem, it is advisable for owners to seek assistance from a mechanic for a thorough inspection and diagnosis of the dashboard light failure.
