I may be opening a can of worms here but, I was trying to get my fuel gauge working and noticed that there were no wires going to it. That wasn't surprising seeing as a good chunk of the wiring/rubber under the dash has mysteriously turned to rat poop over the last 20 or so years the truck sat. Then I see, once I had removed the cluster, that the back side of it was some sort of integrated circuit type of dealy that I'm not very familiar with. Does anybody have any experience restoring these? I thought that if there is no way to solder or repair the original thing that i would just run wire from the harness to the corresponding gauges/lights/ect... Please tell me if thats a bad idea or would be to arduous of a journey to undergo. am i better off saving for replacement bits? I really like the look of the gauge cluster and would like to keep it as original as i can (and still functional) What do y'all think?
