I gotta love this website. I haven't been able to get my instrument panel lights to work for a long time until I saw an old thread talking about those two wires under the shifter that shouldn't be connected. That was actually my problem all along. A little research goes a long way! I was ready to attempt to rip my dash apart and figure it out. Goodbye flashlight, hello dash lights!

 

lol....I remember you saying that about your dash lights at the flying saucer. Glad to see you got it fixed.

 

Yeah, it took enough procrastination to get it done!

 

It took me 6 months off and on the find the short in mine so I could have dash lights.
