66 Dart Dash printed circuit board issue

philip's66 · Oct 27, 2020

My circuit board cooked itself at the ammeter .Many years ago. I see a replacement on classic industry . Price is not bad. Has anyone used this to repair their dash? I found a stickey on how to repair this on Slant Six ..org . Just trying to get some info before I pull the trigger.

Just bought new boards from Classic for my '68. Eight pin connector was breaking apart. I love the new ones, very well made, pin connectors extra strong. Made in Canada.

What exactly did you do do your instruments? I have a problem with my speedo so I just bought another cluster, ordered a new circuit panel and LEDs, so want to have them 100% when I put them back together.

The mfg of those circuit boards is up here in Ontario I believe. They also do all types of gauges, tachs etc. Heaterbox restos as well. Google Mrheaterbox.

What is the problem with speedo? Local speedo shop can repair/calibrate it. New face overlay available.

It was bouncing and sticking, then quit moving. Odometer works so I know the cable is good. I got a decent deal on the whole cluster so it made it easy. Where can I get the overlays?

Mine did the same also and it was the cable

But the odometer worked even with the needle not moving?

Mrheaterbox/premium dash decals sells overlays.

I printed out the speedo plate pattern on vinyl and applied it over the black with white lines (going late model look) and I'll be using LEDS in there to make them show up. I still have to paint the numbers in the lens black
