88 NA Convertible Electrical Issues
 
I have a stock 1988 Convertible that has more than 1 electrical issue.

1.) The instrument cluster and a/c control lights flicker on and off but the headlights and tail lights stay on like they should.
2.) The clock on the dash doesn't display and the low coolant light and buzzer come on randomly and I just paid a reputable shop to do a coolant flush and fill and install a new sensor purchased from Mazda.
3.) The headrest speakers do not work at all. Nor do the power mirrors and the switches are beside each other.

Any suggestions on where to look or how to fix will be greatly appreciated! :)

1. Replace/rebuild headlight switch and associated harness
2. Resolder idiot light/clock cluster
3. No idea on the speakers. Perhaps check the amps? Replace/clean power mirror switches

I thought I might have to replace the light switch. I called Mazda and the said it would be about $300 for a new one. :/ how would I go about rebuilding it?

Buy a used switch..you would be better off.(cheaper).
I just got a whole cluster surround with switches for 20 bucks Cdn.

Where did you find it? An online store or a junk yard? I know there's not any rx7's in the junk yards around here. :/
