i just found an 84 berlinetta its mine for the taking but the digital speedo and tach dont work neither do the dash lights that light the fuel, oil pressure gauges ect, and all the warning lights come on and stay on (low coolant low oil check engine choke...) all the fluids are full any ideas if this might be a short in the wiring, anything would be useful i cant find any info on these gauges anywhere. please help. thanks

 

Do you think you could use this?

 

And this? BTW, welcome to the board!!

 

thank you thank you thank you,

now for the time being can i just hook up another speedo mounted on the dash or something so i have some time to figure this out or would that be a huge pain in the rear and not worth trying

and thanks for the welcome

 

It would be a Royal PITA and not worth doing.

 

well under the asumption that the gauge is shot and possibly fixable i will send it to mr whizard and see if they can fix it but if its toast and cant be fixed is it possible to convert to analog seeing as how i was planning on putting a bigger motor in there anyway i would want to put a set of gauges in there that have a higher mph

 

and while im thinking about it any one know where i can find a good picture of a berlinetta fuse block with the fuses in it

 

All the problems you mention here can be resolved by a repaired or replacement cluster. They are usually not all problematic at the same time,.... IE -- The system monitor fails, or the digital portion of the dash is dead. It's rare to see a dash with 3 or the 4 major problems ( the only thing you didnt mention was if the guages are working right !?!?!)

If you replace your dash cluster be sure to get the right one for your car !! A V6 needs a V6 cluster & a V8 needs a V8 cluster ! And don't forget that the berlinetta speedo sending unit is Electric and not a cable sending unit. ( If you buy an aftermarket speedo !! )

Here is a picture of a 1984 Berlinetta fusebox. I didn't check to see if all the fuses were the right ones !!!
