Default 84 Instrument cluster problem

Just noticed the other day that the first number on the fuel range is missing and guage will not reset. If I switch it to the trip OD it works fine.

What could cause that to go out and is it worth fixing?

Thanks,

Hugh

So out of our 1000 + members no one has any thoughts, interesting.

Not a simple problem, my thought is you are going to need to either live with it, or send the unit in for repair, I know of no easy/quick fix.

I think alot of members were thinking the same thing, they were just hoping somebody else would step up with a fix. You might try Gary @512-748-4279 (Texas), he rebuilds them.
