Talking plz read

Ladies and gentle men
i have my black 1985 rx-7 in working condition
it runs perfect other then the fact that i cant see the speedometer at night because the dash lights don't work
i tryed a fuse but that didn't work. also the stupid slave cylinder broke after i got a new master cylinder. but all is well now. i already beat a very bad *** looking jetta ( he didnt know what hit him) all he saw was the sticker in the back of my car which said F***er.
thank you to everyone that helped me and does any one have some ideas about my dash light. thanks

ok try looking at the dimmer switch on the left side of wheel by the choke ***. that can go bad and cause that not to work, try making a U shaped piece of wire and plug them in to see if its not a nother problem..

Thumbs up

Good work, wrench-hand,
What Master, what Slave? You talkin' 'bout clutch?
In reference to the dash-lights, many of us have that problem. I have a GSL with the same issue. I have a salvage yard dimmer roller, but have yet to put it in. I also promised to read the Haynes, and factory electrical sections....Not yet, Oh, boy!
Actually been busy with all the other rigs holed up in my crib's driveway. Eldest Son on his way tomarrow to L.A. in his MX-6, so did complete tune and check on that one. "Deerslayer" was past due for its oil change, plugs, etc. Did that...Keeping eye on Youngest Son's 2nd gen, as he's breaking in a new motor, which means oil and MMO changes. Middle Son's ''84 SE got new headlamp, shift ****, racing pedals, thermostat, and then I sandblasted the udercarriage, shot it with anti-rust, then shot it with undercoating....Just call me the Sandy Cowboy! Took two days to clean myself off, and I'm still gettin' sand out of my ears!

Oh, rebuilt the left front brake caliper on the MG, then cleaned and polished the rotor....My own 2 Sevens? They await their turn in the 7th Heaven Garage....

A tip of the Stetson,
Denny, from the 'ol corncrib....
