Let me translate for you Scooter. " My gauge cluster printed circuit board is missing two of the light bulb holders. I have noticed that all the paths on the circuit board are connected to each other. My question is will the missing light bull holders affect the functionality of the gauges? Perhaps causing my gauges go crazy intermittently? Thanks for any real help I might receive."

I dont know, but it seems my board had a couple of blank spots as well. I could be wrong. I dont trust my memory.

Re: Gauge curcuit board

As far as I know none of the traces share any paths. The freaking out could be that the cluster isnt pushed in tight enough to the connectors, or that the connectors themselves are a bit dirty or out of alignment. Or it could be a wiring issue in the harness, I would start by cleaning connections first, then work you way down

Great translation taonindo lol
