You might try hard wiring your dash lights. Posted by Wil W [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Dash Light Problem, Jim, Tue, 10 Feb 2009 09:19:46 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I just did this recently when my bulbs would intermittently go out. My foil circuit board was pretty chewed up so it was hard to get a good connection.
I pulled both bulbs and holders and just attached some wire to the contacts and taped them in place. (I tried to solder them on, but the the contacts wouldn't hold.) I then spliced the wires together and attached some wire connectors for easy instalation. I pulled out my headlight switch, and sandwiched some wire between the switch and plug and attached connectors to this set.
I bent back the flexible circuit board so it wouldn't contact the bulb holders and put in my dash bulbs. I connected the it all together and now I have dashlights again.
Not a professional solution, but it works and I have dashlights.
