just getting dash all hooked up and I cant get the dash lights ,or wipers working. I tried using the wire diagrams traced wires and have power. is there anything I should check other than ground before I start ripping it fully apart?
 
As you probably know the orange wire work all the dash lights and if that's hot and your grounds are good you might have a crack in the circuit board. The wipers I would guess is at the switch or bulk head connector.
 
Dash lights might be a dirty or bad rheostat on the dimmer switch. Try turning the switch up and down a few times before you do anything else. Check voltage going to the switch next.

ok update- tore our inst cluster think i found the problem with the dash lights, (I hope)the top peg (inst light feed) was broken off. for some reason I dont think i have a good ground was testing for power with a test light at the light socket and one side was bright other was dim (with no bulb in )or its back feeding from something else? :brickwall: did i ever tell you guys I HATE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!
