![]() ![]() After pulling switch back out and checking everything I found out the ground wire that was installed to back of oil gauge cover was causing the issue. Disconnect the wire and wiper switch works......BUT with it disconnected now the fuel gauge doesn't it goes work off scale low, high beam light is on when headlights lights are off, turn indicators don't work in dash But blinkers do work. It appears ground is needed but I thought it was suppose to come through board. I was thinking to replace circuit board, but I am still confused why wipers won't turn off with ground as switch is case grounded normally. Will missing ground cause other issues? Should I look for another issue for running with ground wire applied? Any help is welcome I learned a lot from other posts I figured this would be easy for someone.

Is this ground wire connected? It is the ground for the cluster.... LockDoc

Re: 72 C10 dash ground
Thanks LockDoc for the picture. I don't have a wire going to the edge and clip. The wire I have is an add on, it goes from under a steering column clamp and was ran to the 1/4 screw holding the cover in place behind the oil pressure gauge.
Where does the correct ground connect to?

Re: 72 C10 dash ground
I dig around see if I can find it. If I want to run new wire where does it ground to?
