Welcome to 2007  Group: Members Posts: 268 Joined: 23-November 04 From: Olympia, WA Member No.: 3,166  |
I have a sort of ratty set of gauges in my '72. Will the newer set of gauges from a '74 (Speedo, Tach & fuel) plug into my '72 or are there some big differences that would require some rewiring or ??
Thanks |

If you have seperate indicaters, they are supposed to work independently. If they both blink at the same time, the diode wiring has probably been removed, or is bacwards (?) or possibly the diode itself went bad. I had one that was wired backwards (easy to do), and once I reversed the wire, it was fine.
