    Good video but most even 2010 and up vehicles some earlier vehicles actually have a board which need solder if you can see the problem burn , mine has problems, but looking at board looks fine ---- when cluster installed problems

    I think I would rather dab some solder in that trace rather than the liquid stuff. Or you can solder a small gauge wire to the trace.

    • @matmanpromotions6457

      would solder not harm the tracer?

      @@matmanpromotions6457 Nope, solder would complete the connection just the same as the liquid he used, personally as a repair technician of medical equipment, just using a jumper wire is the easiest thing. Solder both sides completely bypassing the solder run or "trace" as he calls it in the video.

    •  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If that is Dodge pickup, there are 2 plugs (connectors) that you simply plug the cluster into. However there is no always on wire in either connector, so you will never find one. Power is supplied only when key is in the on/start positions. The orange wire coming from a joint connector into one of cluster connectors is the power, if key is in on/start pos. (with battery connected of course)
