I've read how to remove the wood face and the cluster. One Tech said NOT to turn the cluster upside down, just unplug the two electrical connectors and slide the cluster out.

What will happen if the cluster is tipped forward 45 degrees so the face of the gauges are facing down? Will the needles fall off or what????

Thanks for the help

This will cause a rupture in the space-time continuum

Thats good doug, but tipping lets the dampning jelly ooze out of the gauges.....
NO SERIOUSLY THOUGH, IT CAN<<<CAN LEAD TO STUCK NEEDLE, NEVER SEEN IT HAPPEN AND IVE TIPPED A FEW BACK IN MY DAY...HAVE YOU TRIED SMACKING THE CRAP OUTTA THE TOP OF THE DASH??? THAT ALWAYS WORKS FOR ME(DID LAST NIGHT ON A CUSTOMER CAR TOO) THE BULBS TEND TO GET A LITTLE SURFACE CORROSION AND A GOOD SMACK MOST OF THE TIME MAKES ALL RIGHT AGAIN IN THE WORLD...WELL AT LEAST WITH THAT SPACE TIME CONTINUEUM THING

 

I have to apologize for my juvenile sense of humor--it sometimes gets the better of me (my wife complains about it all the time)

It will make every jag in the world simulatanously (spell?) stop running.

 

Thanks for the info Brutal.

Yes and that didn't work. Jag parts dept. shows two bulbs, a small one and a larger one, both having the same part number. I'll take it all apart today and see which one I need then replace all four of them.
