DOA- Instrument Cluster Ooopsy.....

[jay78fj40]

Friends-

I just pulled my cluster to have it touched up, and when I went to drive the cruiser to the body shop without it, I have absolutely no power whatsoever to anything. Battery is not dead, is there something in the cluster removal that would cause this or did I maybe blow a big fuse when pulling it out?

Any help is appreciated.

Set your cluster back in there & hook up your amp meter. ( do not accidently touch anything to that loose amp wire...it's always hot) I think that will get you going.

Or, just connect your ammeter leads together.

x2 and put tape on it. It's the main lead to and from the battery with no fuse so a short means .....

A short means you'll pop your fusible link; not great, but not too bad.
