Classic/Antique Car Repair: Dash lights, ford falcon futura, dash lights

Question
1969 Ford Falcon Futura station wagon, none of the dash lights work, where should I start my checklist?

Answer
There should be a fuse on the back side of the headlight switch. Then check for voltage at the switch rheostat, the white round porcelain device, at the know end of the switch. This controls the dash lights and the dome light. Make sure that there is voltage going in and out with the headlights turned on. From there check the bulbs. It is easier to get at the switch than the bulbs.
