For those that have fixed their clusters...
I have been looking into getting my cluster fixed I think I found the cause why it isn't working.
I think those are obviously burnt.
On the second picture, I'm nut sure if it is burnt or is that grease that it used to solder but to be on the safe size I'm going to replace it
Does any one knows what kind of capacitors these are?

On mine the odo, speedo and tach are not working. They used to go out when I the gas pedal would got to the floor but if I cycled the key it would come back. I traced wires and the cluster is getting power.

the cap looks fine. the 3 glass ones are zener diodes. this type of diode has a specific reverse breakdown voltage that you will need to match. best bet would be to find a working cluster and measure the values there.

Mine stopped working a week after I bought the car, turned out whoever did the battery relocation didn't use a good ground point, which caused the battery to drain and odometer not to work, I moved the ground and got a new battery and the odometer has been working since.

Well I want to fix it because I want to use the odometer on the 99 spec cluster. That way I can display accurate Milagros. I do have access to some aviation technicians (I'm an aviation ordnance tech) I just need to figure. Out what kind of diodes they are. So I guess I can do that once I get my new one. Thanks for the inputs.
