First time was to replace the wiper pivots( they rusted solid while it sat) linkage bushings, remove some of the rigged wiring and put in a nicer gauge cluster, after I got it all back together the gauges didn't work, I thought it was something I did removing excess wiring
I read on here about the voltage limiter so took it apart and hooked up the old ugly gauges and they worked again, so I turned 2 gauge clusters into 1
Next day the speed quit working so back apart to grease the speed cable
Everything has been fine for about a month now although the gas gauge seemed to have a mind of its own and slightly unreliable
Yesterday both gas and temp went wonky so am pretty sure it's the voltage limiter
Plus side I can take the cluster out in about 20 minutes by this time so it's all good
Still dreading taking the column apart to put in the new ignition switch that matches the new door locks and replacing the broken turn signal cancelling cam but those are just minor inconveniences I can live with for now
