1989 F150 DASH PANEL

Mar 01, 2006 1 Replies

Hi, A buddies F150 has several gauges in his dash panel that are intermittantly giving incorrect readings. Since more than one gauge is affected we suspect a bad ground or defective foil pattern on the lex cicuit board. does any one have or know a source for the gauge schematic and/or printed circuit layout for this year. Our books show for earlier models but nothing for this year. Thanks, Tom

I don't know what "defective foil pattern on the lex cicuit board" is, but if several gauges are wacky at the same time, I would suspect a voltage problem with the charging system, or a bad gauge voltage regulator (located on the printer circuit board. You could be on the right track with bad ground; sometimes the wiring connector at the circuit board is loose.
