Question 380sl instrument cluster questions.

I have two questions regarding my cluster. One of the light bulbs on the lower right side of the cluster stays on all the time when the engine is running. Since I have had the cluster out so many times I do not know where each bulb goes. The color code on the wire is red with a thin blue line and the other side is dark yellow. Also the clock has 12 volt to the terminal but will not run. What should I check next ?

Not sure about the rest, but the clock probably has nothing to do with it unless the entire cluster is not grounded, unlikely, because a lot of other things would be going on.

Each light should be numbered...1, 2, 3, 4. They are on my 500SL. Also, wire length is a pretty good determinant.

That wire goes to the 3rd hole from the outside.
