Oklahoma Wolf, Help !

I have a rebuilt 1987 LeBaron GTS cluster and at least one from a 1988 New Yorker, but that's about it.

My guess would be there is a problem in the power supply section of these clusters. Unless they're broken, the VFDs themselves should be ok. It's getting to the point now that bad capacitors are more and more likely to turn up in these... even the good ones have a finite lifespan. In the completely dead ones, I'd go looking for fried voltage regulators too.

But at this point, it wouldn't be a bad idea to start re-capping these clusters even if they're working. Those capacitors won't last forever.

The problem is, we're not likely to get our hands on schematics for these and a lot of the parts use proprietary Chrysler part numbers. Makes everything harder than it needs to be, and drives me right up the wall.
