?? Behind the gauge cluster
Hi all
I was doing some bulb replacement on the gauges and was wondering if anyone could answer 2 questions. 1. One of the sockets is white with a male spade terminal, it is the bulb that lights one side of the speedo, any idea why its different?? 2. There is a wire with a female spade end all wrapped up in the column harness, again any idea as to what its for?? Thanks and have a great night---- |

Maybe thats the wire that feeds the light in the column for the gear indicator?

I'll check that out I'm missing the needle but I still have the p.r.n.d.2.1.
Does that light up, or is it supposed to?? |

Re: ?? Behind the gauge cluster
Good timing, there was recently a post all about this, apparently if you have a tilt column, it takes a different light source then if you had a non tilt, there is alot of good info that covers this in this post.
