I previously posted about electrical issues with my Barracuda I was chasing down. Since the bezel was out I checked the pins on the main connector. I found 3 loose pins and one broken off completely. I soldered a wire to the contact point on the board to that broken one with a slip on connector to the corresponding wire in the harness. I decided to solder (rosin core solder only) all the pins to the circuit boards, don't forget the 3 pin connector near the speedometer. Anyways, that restored my guage lights and intermittent electrical issues.
In my earlier thread we took apart the hazard flasher switch to get those working. After seeing the condition of that switch I ordered a new headlight switch.

Most of our cars have had multiple owners and may have had the bezel out previously and the age of the components comes into play too.
