Gauge Cluster removal
Been about 10 years since I removed the dash cluster on a 67-72. Question is I know there is the main harness that plugs into the curcuit board but is their a separate harness for the tachometer or is the tach hard wired in with individual wires?? Factory Tach cluster BTW.
I want to reprint my gauge needles since they are so faded. Thanks! |

Re: Gauge Cluster removal
There is a 2-prong L-shaped black plastic plug that goes directly into the rear of the tach - it can be unplugged from behind/underneath before removal. If there's enough slack, you can pull the cluster fwd a little before removal and see if you can get your hand back there - but you might as well yank it while your hand is up there to undo the speedo cable. Less likely to scratch your dash that way.

Here is the back side with tach and speed warning wiring.
