Rally Dash

There is a voltage regulator located inside the fuel gauge. It allows 12v in and trims it down to approx 5-6V, that MAY be your problem. If it goes, the majority of dash "stuff" stops working.
I have extra fuel gauges i will try it i did not think this would effect the lights only gauges. The cluster has two seperate boards that each run independantly the brake light runs off the one side and the hight beam light is off the opposite board. so each board is getting power i am gona pull the dash and run leads to it and trouble shoot it that way i guess. frustrating that this is all that is the last issue before i can drive the car.
