Hello, on a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) 1976 2.0, no light on the gauge.
After unmounting the gauges, a flying black and blue wire is existing and the gauge lamps wire are black or black/purple instead of black/blue.
I will appreciate if somebody can help.

Sorry for my bad English, I'm a french (and newcomer)

It does appear that some wire there may have been replaced. Most have the neoprene socks on the terminals to insulate them. Those that are missing socks were probably replaced. The one in the middle should have the sock pulled down into place.
Yes, Black with blue marker are the dimmable illumination wires. The black/purple is generally just the tachometer wire. You will need to see what wires are on your headlight switch. Got to run now, but will look up more details for you.
