thegreatestben Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 My MA61 has a digidash, the temp and fuel gauge don't work. Previous owner said they flickered on a while ago but they haven't come on for me. I'm hoping sparky can advise on where to look/put smoke back in. I seem to remember him having some experience with the brown van and he owns a soarer so naturally he must be all over electrical gremlins. What usually gives up working? I'd prefer a set of manual gauges but I understand I'd need to change the fuel level sensor and possibly the temp sender also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The contacts on the back will have worn out. You may need to pull the cluster out and re solder them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTERUS Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Shitty solder joins, leaky caps and short/open transistors are usually the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
