As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

Gauge lights - do they all have to work?

I'm troubleshooting my gauge lights and was wondering if all the bulbs on the circuit have to be working for any of them to light up? Right now, none of my gauges on the grey circuit light. I've only changed the cluster bulbs but not the license plate bulb.

Also, when checking for voltage on the grey and blck/wht, am I looking for 12v on that or 3.4v?

Thanks

Ground is fine. That's the common ground and all other lights working fine. All bulbs replaced expect the fuel gauge which I'm short one bulb so just wondering if they all have to be working for any of them to be working?
 
it wont matter if one is missing, the rest should light up as normal. the lamps are 12v, 3.4watt (not 3.4 volts)
 
Oh ok thanks Agemax.

Next question - where does the grey wire get power?

Click to expand...

Jumper wire (where used to be headlight switch in previous years) in a connector fron the Org/Grn circuit, and org/Grn circuit is straight from a fuse.

.
 
Ok, looking at a schematic it appears the grey wire connects to what is labeled Y/W at a connector that also has the coil wires. The Y/W is connected to O/R at the connector. So, O/R powers Y/W which grey is jumpered to. That sound accurate?
 
Alright, I found the issue. Bad connector. Man, I really need to make a new harness one of these days...
