right half of dashboard stopped working

Hey all,

Recently i noticed that my clock stopped working as well as my right turn signal arrow green blinker light. The actual blinker works (on the car) both front and rear... but both of these things are not working on my dashboard. It almost feels like the right side of the dashboard is not getting power.

Any suggetions?

The night lights on the dashboard work
left blinker light works
brights light works
glow plug light works

The turn signal indicator problem is probably caused by a blown bulb. You will ned to pull out the instrument cluster in order to replace the bulb. While the cluster is out, using a test light check to be sure you have 12 volts of power at the clock wire. If you do, the problem is in the clock itself.

May be a bad trace on the instrument cluster circuit board. May be unrelated failures that occurred at the same time or close together.

I think the clock has it's own separate power wire (white terminal cover), so that would eliminate the copper trace as a possibility.
