Need Help Badly!!!!!
Hi, Back on the board finally. Thanks for all the replies. Sure is nice to have such a great board and people willing to help.
I didn't get a chance to have at it yesterday, but hope I can get in there today. I'll give a go at the mirror. I should have thought of it, but hard to think of anything when your arm is stuck up in the bottom of the dash and you are too busy #$%%^^^^$###'ing the car! lol.
Thanks for all the replies and the step by steps on getting the cluster out. Mine is a bit different being the earlier one so luckily don't have to muck with the headlamp switch etc. I think I actually have everything important unhooked it is just that harness that runs across the back of it that seems to be clipped to it some how. Sort of a springy type metal by the feel of it and only located on the top of it. I don't think there is some sort of plug there although I will give a go at squeezing the metal tang towards the harness and see if it is some sort of release for one. Feels just like it is some clip thing to hold the harness from flopping around. If it is, I don't know why they could not have just used those nice bendy ones, like in your picture above, so you could just fold it out of the way.
The tang that is holding the harness is just above where the speedo cable went. Mention as perhaps that rings a bell with someone.
Hope I can get the thing out today. Want to go work on it now, but I guess the neighbours would frown on an oversize Brit, upside down under the dash with a flash light, yelling at the harness, car, cluster etc. etc. at 5:48 in the AM.
Cheers
