I have a couple more issues...

1) The instrument panel lights basically don't work, the instrument panel is totally black when the headlights are on. I uh....jiggled the clock knob on the panel and momentarily they came on...once. When I turn on my headlights, the arrows for hazards turn on steady (not flashing), the high beam indicator and glow plug light come on and all the temp gauge pegs at 120.

When I turn my turn signal on, with the headlights on, all the gauges click back and forth in time with the turn signal light.

I guess I am going to have to pull the instrument panel...but, is there anything in particular to look for other than melted or loose wiring?

2)Also, it is too dark to take a digital picture...but there is a break on a medium sized rubber hose next to the power break booster, on the left side as you are facing it. I have been able to find a picture of it in the manual, but no identification.

Anyone know what it is, and what a break there could cause? It looks awfully large for a vacuum line, but there's no fluid in it.

Sorry if these are inane questions, but I appreciate any help. Thanks,

Reverendxlt
