my guage cluster doesn't work (lights, volts, fuel, temp, and oil pres.) the blinkers work but thats about it, i took the cluster out and noticed two problems here are some pics

what could that go to its a black wire and its cut

The other wire is back there some where. Find it and hook it up.

i looked

 

[liljoe07]

What year car? what color wire?

 

[50foxbody]

86 and black wire

 

[liljoe07]

Id say its a ground.

 

[jrichker]

Wires come with a primamry color and a tracer stripe. Both colors are needed to identify the wire and circuit it belongs to.

The year of the car is also needed. The wiring changed several times between 79 and 95.

 

[liljoe07]

He said 1986. Not all wires have a Tracer. But the majority do.
