I don't usually mess with them. At $35 apiece, they're pretty easy to replace. Take the cluster out. Mark the wires if you aren't familiar with them.

Then undo the back of the cluster from the front case. A bunch of little phillips screws undo it. The board is right underneath the temp gauge and slides into a socket, and is held in by two little tabs that you can release easily.

If you want to try a fix, solder terminal 1 to terminal 3 (with a jumper) on the board. I have had some success with that in the past. Usually, though, a new board does the trick better than anything.

Then button it back up. The yellow/red wire goes to the very lower left. The yellow wire goes to the double terminal near the speedo head. The rest of it is pretty self-explanatory. But CHECK before you undo them to make sure that's how they come off of there.

PS, if you have a tach, you'll have to deal with white/red wire as well.
