Default 850 dashboard death!

All my gages and cruise died on me. I tried to replace the gage cluster with another, but no luck. Anyone had this? Thanx

Don't whine about the suggestions of RSPI with over 5,000 posts. He is a wealth of knowledge and experience, but may think twice about responding to a post of yours in the future. We get your frustration, but don't take it out on us.

You need to do some power, ground and continuity checks. Start with the largest feeders to narrow it down.

Right you are, frustrated indeed. My apologies. I have suspected ground as well. I also heard possibly an ignition switch.? Thanks again. Peace
