I will definitely be checking the alternator as part of this entire repair… I’m thinking if the terminal on the alternator got that hot it’s indicative of a problem within the alternator. I am building a list of parts I’ll need to order besides the new fusible link, I’d like to figure out the...

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate the simplified diagram, I do have a factory manual, but the wiring diagrams are far from straight forward… As I continue to investigate, the main feed terminal at the alternator saw some heat as the plastic shield around the post is all melted, so I’m thinking...

It’s a 70 Swinger 340

Hello, trying to do some detective work after my headlights stopped working last week. In so doing I discovered the fusible link between the starter relay and bulkhead connector terminal J is melted, the red wire on the inside of the bulkhead looks good, I haven’t looked up under the dash at...

Thanks for your insight! I won't be tapping on the glass! I didn't realize that much damage can occur but never saw the point? I'll hopefully be able to start putting it back together later this week.

I was able to obtain a NOS fuel gauge locally and feeling very fortunate, I want it to have a long and healthy existence. When you say "amputate" the limiter entirely, I take that to mean that your method differs from what I'm reading from RTE suggesting to just bend the points apart so they no...

Thanks for the insight, yes I agree. The limiter and fuel gauge windings were both burnt and crispy. The gauge smelled burnt before I opened it up. The other two do not smell burnt and I was reluctant to open them up since they are currently working. To make sure I have no choice but to open...

Thanks for your reply, yes the fuel gauge is defective also. I was referring to the fact that removing the cluster is a lot more involved than the non rallye stile with zero mention in the factory manual? I've tested the other gauges and that is not the issue, they still work fine but have...

Thanks, not a lot of info on the A body rallye cluster, even my original 1970 Dodge Dart manual has no mention or wiring diagram for this dash?

Hello, I'm in the process of repairing my gauges in my 70 dart rallye cluster with a failed/burnt voltage limiter and fuel gauge. I've tested the temp and oil gauges and they both test fine. When this problem occurred the fuel gauge went to empty and the temp and oil went to the max. I was in...
