Exclamation 1976 F150 Inst. Cluster Printed Circuit Board

Does anyone know where I can locate one. I just had to replace the instr. Cluster because the old one was crumbling and some of my lights at the guages weren't working. Looks like the circuit board is bad. I'm restoring this truck. It's all original inside and out. If anyone has any idea where I can locate the board I would greatly appreciate it

Look in LMC and auto krafters for new ones. They are pricey new. I was able to pick up an entire instrament cluster from ebay for 20 bucks. Also, try local slavage yards. ust be sure that the circuit board matches your original. You can't use a board for gauges when you have the "idiot" lights and vise-versa. The part number is on the circuit board....

Thanks, I've looked at most of the salvage yards here with no luck. I'll keep looking though

Use of the quote is not necessary in a conversation with 2 people

Do this cluster have Gauges or Idiot Lights ?

teds74ford .I can't email you yet haven't been a member that long. Reply when you can

The salvage yards I have checked , Vans and truck are few and far between it's hard finding one that the cluster hasn't been damaged or gone. I'm still looking though

Get a cluster out of a mid eighties van with gauges. I used one of those in my 77 F-250 and it works great.

I purchased a cluster w/ PCircuit Board at a salvage yard and it didn't work. so I'm back to square one on finding one that will work.

An easy way to tell is to check the length of the plug that goes in the back of the cluster. There were different sizes.

That wasn't the problem. Everything was a match just theres something wrong with the circuit board.

Since you can't e-mail me, if you want, I can send you my phone #. Which color back do you have? The green or orange?

Go to google and type in "dandmrestoration" (without the quotes) they specialize in restoring and calibrating gauges and instrument clusters
