Don't have any, any suggestions? Fuses are good, wires are good, panel on the back of the cluster is corroded and pins are missing. Could i run a bulb straight from the battery to a toggle switch to the cluster?

Suggestions for what? Do you not have dash lights, or are you referring to a slight dimming at idle (very common with stock alternator)?

If the PCB is corroded and there are no pins back there I say you need to get a new gauge cluster or at least a new PCB to get thing operating correctly..


If there are no pins that meas no elect. getting to anything in the Gauge cluster..

Well, on that circular connector in the back I'm missing probably 4 of them. But also where the bulbs fit into the circuit board it is all corroded.

New gauge cluster is in order then...




maybe Hit up MIDI on this board - I am sure wildcat auto wrecking would have one for you and they are close to you in the Northwest.

MIDI isn't @ Wildcat anymore. However, their website with a phone number, etc. is wildcatmopars.com You could also post an ad in the 'parts wanted' section of the board here. There are a couple on ebay right now too. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the heads up. I have one of their business cards from when I went to the PIR swap meet. Thought about all american classics, I got my driver fender from them for 150 with no rust.
