instrument cluster voltage limiter

It cuts the 12 volts down to 5 volts and than it dies, I think it was a very bad idea
I agree 100%!
I've always wondered why they didn't just use gauges that work with 12v.
It seems so logical...:dontknow:
Mine died by putting out a constant 12v and fried the gas and temp gauges.
Had to buy three instrument clusters just to get two working gauges. :cussing:

I know it was a dumb idea, because Ford did the same thing... :)
