Does anyone know if AC gauge # 1516221 will work in stock 6v 1940? My original gauge has # 1516451 and 1516453 on it's face. Is 1516221 a replacement, possibly? Somebody has a parts book, I hope! Thanks all.

Hy 40casey, according to my Canadian parts book p/n 1516221 is for a 1940 or 1941, and there is a little note at the end of the description "dark brown", p/n 1516451 is listed for 1942 to 1946, hope that helps.
