    Bad Ground on my 67 Valiant Dash Cluster?

    I'm not sure if I need any gauges at this point. I'll let you know if I do. We'll talk then. Thank you

    Bad Ground on my 67 Valiant Dash Cluster?

    You're right. Instructions always say "disconnect negative battery cable before proceeding". Sometimes, I have. Sometimes, (like now) I didn't. I got bit, and I think that I'll always disconnect the battery from now on. It's kind of funny that you mention a "live alt amp gauge". All of the...

    Bad Ground on my 67 Valiant Dash Cluster?

    Yes. I was disconnecting the black wire on the circuit board, and the wrench touched the metal part of the dash. It blew the fusible link under the hood. That seems pretty extreme for disconnecting a dash cluster.

    Bad Ground on my 67 Valiant Dash Cluster?

    Instrument cluster voltage limiter.

    I have a 67 Valiant. My ammeter and temp gauges are not working. They did, until I pulled out the cluster to replace the dash bulbs. I must have done something, don't know what. Is it possible that I shorted out the voltage limiter? I am still getting power at the temp gauge at the circuit...
