86 instrument cluster problem
I just bought an 86 with an instrument cluster problem. the cluster lights up. But everything indicates a maximum value. I cannot be doing max rpm and max mph while I am sitting still in the parking lot. Is this a simple fix, or do I need a new cluster assembly? I was hoping that it is a simple power source problem. :confused:

Re: 86 instrument cluster problem (Sharky Guam)
a few of my backlite bulbs quit working but gauges are fine. Dealer wants $110 to just replace those bulbs. I just ordered a complete rebuilt unit from Corvette Cluster Service in Indiana for $200 exchange. They say its a 20 minute job to change it. Instructions included. Mine is also an 86.

Takes about 15 minutes and $4.00 of bulbs to replace, if you want to do it yourself!
