Default PRNDL Lights Not Working

1995 Dodge Ram 1500 V8 Automatic 4x4 SLT

My PRNDL Lights do not work. Everything else is fine. Is there a bad sensor or something?

A burnt out bulb in the dash maybe?

I believe on the 95 it is just a mechanical slider that is spring loaded (returns it to P) with a cable attached to the shifter.
If you can see it at P, but it don't move, then the cable has come off or broke. If you can't see it at all (just an orange line alongside of the selected gear) then the spring is suspect.
If you are talking about the back light (can't see it in the dark) then it is just a bad bulb. If one bulb is burned out it is a good idea to change them all while you have it out in the open.
Hope this helps some.
