Default Center Cluster
Hey all<

Anyone out there have any pictures of the back of the center cluster on a 75? Especially around the temp gauge and the ammeter.

Thanks!

i am not sure what you are looking for but the catalogs have lots of pictures of the replacement parts if this helps. especially the printed circuit board.

The car is a driver but is garaged all the time, 44k miles on it. took the pics before i modded the center section for a new radio, and tried to get the clock going again. Gave up on the clock.

My factory clock came to life after I cleaned it and ran a separate ground to it.

Mod75 you are a lifesaver! Thank you. You wouldn't happen to know if there are any fiber washers or insulators on the ammeter?

Not sure about the fiber washers or insulators on the ammeter?, we did not remove that item. Will checkout my other photos of the console removal.
