Instrument Cluster Removal, Help!
(Looks like you have a nut missing from one gauge already)
yup there is a contact nut missing from the temp gauge.
Nice spotting, gentleman! I though something was awry there... Now, is that nut just for grounding the temp gauge to the circuit board, or should there have been a wire connected to it from the harness? I looked around in the dash after I pulled it and didn't immediately see any "extra" wire hanging around...
As you can probably guess, the main reason I took the whole thing out was to fix the temp/fuel gauges (no reading on either, new Voltage Regulator going in shortly, both senders fine :wink:). Since I do have soldering skills, I'm planning on patching everything I can find on the circuit boards, and a nice deep cleaning as well. Plus sanding and repainting the bezel and faces, but that's another thread :D
Of course, the speedo doesn't read properly either, but now that everything's disconnected, I'll be able to do the standard tests as to weather it's the cable or the gauge.
:prayer: to you both
