You've got power all the way up to the base of LEDs and they don't light? Do they fail due to vibration or something?
I don't doubt that they're out -- a couple of mine tend to only come on when they feel like it -- but I always assumed that it was just more oxidized pin connectors, like the gauge clusters have, rather than an LED burning out...

Since when do LEDs burn out???

not to thread hijack but any ideas on if we can change the color of the gauges?
There are aftermarket electro-luminescent gauge dial overlays you can use to stick on top of the existing gauge cluster, if you want a dramatically-different look to your dash, but I think you're still going to have a lot of red backlighting elsewhere; e.g. on button labels and such.
