there are 3 ..

they're in plain sight right on top.
around my shop we call that IPS ..
'in plain sight' ..
like where did I leave my xxxxx.

it's over there IPS ..
then you point with an "L" sign with your hands and fingers..
which stands for 'looser' ........only for male joking around of course.

There are two distinct lights at the top of the instrument cluster, one for
the speedo, the other for the tach/clock.  Follow the ribbons coming from
the lights back down to the connector and it should be pretty easy to see
which line they're on.
