Re: Electronic Gauge

It is actually quite simple to do. You have to move just about every wire in the plug. I used a pick tool. The diagrams are readily available with a simple search on this forum. It is amazing when everything works.

Re: Electronic Gauge

If you're needing the pinouts, confirm that your cluster looks the same or has the same part number as the third one in this facebook post. If so, one of these should be accurate for a 1990/91 cluster. If your cluster is different, I would be interested in several photos of it to add to my pinout collection.
