Yup, a '70 harness is quite different. Ignition in column instead of dash, ditto on the emergency flasher, dual field charging system, etc. Figure out what is wrong first, then go about getting replacement parts. If you find you need a good dash harness, let me know and I'll check my supply.I see that gap in the photo. Even if change the instrument panel to go along with that harness it would still be a problem?
OK, any reason why I might not be able to use this to repace my 68 cluster & harness?
I have located a 1970 Valiant instrument cluster and harness.
could not find power out from the barrel connector..
Don't think he is an active member.I know this is an OLD thread but did you ever get this fixed and if so what did you do?
Ok RedFish I guess that is what I will have to do.. Thanks...For some standard inst' panels the only lamp that come on with switch on is OIL warning. Others light up a SEATBELT warning. The rally panel has none unless the park brake is set. Only sign of life in these is fuel gauge needle movement. So without knowing what panel you have,,, I'll guess a couple of bulbs burned out, or bulb sockets failed, or both. The sockets have 2 tiny plastic tangs that hold them in position. If you pull the inst' panel and find one or two bulb/socket failures, best plan is replace all of them while you're there.
