| 2001 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL | CAR HAD 37,000 MILES ON IT. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE RESULTED IN AN INABILITY TO READ VEHICLE SPEED, ENGINE SPEED, ENGINE TEMPERATURE AND FUEL LEVEL. REPLACEMENT CLUSTER WAS ACQUIRED AT MY EXPENSE AND INSTALLED AT MY EXPENSE. OLD CLUSTER IS AVAILABLE, HOWEVER I DO NOT WANT TO GIVE IT UP. THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM THAT A REPAIR INDUSTRY FOR THESE INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS HAS CROPPED UP. I INTEND TO HAVE THE OLD ONE REPAIRED FOR THE NEXT TIME THE FAILURE OCCURS. *JB |
