Cluster

[neto]

Hello Friends

Does any know how to make a loose cluster gauge lamp base tighter since it is lightly loose and turns on the light whenever I push it with my hands and when set it free turns off.... in a few words it is short fuse..

The base at bottom is similar to the RPM light that has the short

How do you name this light base? I need a spare one to replace the loose one.

enclosed is a picture of the base I need to replace or fix

The aftermarket leds I’ve purchased all seem to have a thinner base and cause the issue you mention. I usually swap the leds into the factory base they’re replacing.

You could also stick a small screwdriver or pick Under this wire and gently pry up a little. It would make the bulb fit in a little tighter.
