**89 Camaro RS Gauges Printed Circuit Board**

Hey guys, I have a question. I was told by my mechanic that the reason the fuel gauge does not work on my car is because I need to replace the Printed Circuit Board on the back of the gauge cluster. I found one on Classic Industries (http://www.classicindustries.com/cam.../25081605.html) but it's sold out. Does anyone know where I could get one? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Did you telephone C.I. to be sure it wasn't an Internet error? I only mention it because I just bought one about three weeks ago (03/30) from them online.

Yes, I got it 10 days later; even with their inflated $18.00 shipping for a small 1 pound box! They never mentioned having to special order it etc. FYI, it is a reproduction 'Made in the USA'

Hey rough, I contacted Classic Industries. They said they'll get the part in 3-4 weeks. Guess I have to find it somewhere else or wait

Here's a photo of the new one underneath my old one, which, if you look at the bottom right, you can see a source of problem; corrosion and moisture.
