ruined instrument cluster?
 
while working on my instrument cluster with the oil, fuel and temp I burned 2 tracks that I can see. Are these boards repairable or do I have to buy another? 1984D

ruined instrument cluster?
 
I've burned a couple of tracks on my fuel, oil and temp cluster. Can this circuit be repaired? 1984 300D

Anything is possible
 
But the good news is the junk yards are full of them,

Probably
 
Just saw another post with the same problem. You guys should get together on this one.

If you have a 1984 diesel?? Yes they can easily be repaired

Cluster
 
Are you referring to the grounds / tracks?

I somehow shorted out the ground track to the oil pressure gauge and it was dead. The tach and clock, although working, were no longer accurate. Somehow, I did this taking out and installing the cluster back into the dash.

I took a wire from behind the cluster (metal area) by the clock and grounded it to the car. Everything came back to life again. Had to be some type of ground track I messed up!
