musthavemuzk Posted March 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 thanx for the low fuel light fix. that should be easy enough. just gotta take the time. yesterday i tore part of the dash apart to put cd player in now i can tear more of the dash apart. as for the temp light here is a pic of my dash http://www.dbfanatics.com/forum/uploaded/musthavemuzk/93gplewhatthedriverssees.JPG i forget if it is above to the right or above to the left of the temp gauge there is a light that comes and goes Monty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudefyet Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 ahh...ok you have a different cluster then me...i'd say if your temp gauge is reading right it's due to the bad soldering too...see if it goes away when you fix the gas light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musthavemuzk Posted March 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 will have to brush up on the soldering skils with this one. Monty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 uh... i may be wrong, but as far as i know its BAD for the temp gauge to be in the red like that in the picture. you may have bigger probs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musthavemuzk Posted March 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 car was off when i snapped the pics. i have noticed the temp gauge vary from 190 or so up to about 210-220. then back down. i have several t-stats laying around from my cutlass that i plan on throwing in.

berettav6 Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 You need to just get over to a junkyard and grab yourself a full gauge cluster with a tach and everything. I wouldn't even waste my time on the boring standard gauges. It's time to upgrade!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musthavemuzk Posted March 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 i like the upgrade word. just a couple things. not planning on keeping car for along time so mayb upgrade is not the best thing. then on the other hand will it plug right in and be fully functional?

digitaloutsider Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Yep, a new cluster is fully plug and play. I can get one for you, at cost. (Roughly $22) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPdriver1986 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I had the same problem has you, my low fuel did not want to come on and my coolant light was always on, I tried resoldering but since the circuit is different from the full gages cluster I wasn't successful. So I just bought a brand new cluster swapped the odometer and soldered the IC chip so the check gauges and fuel light would work normally.
