lights to gauges conversion?
Question:
I have a ‘79 GMC truck with trouble lights. I have a spare cluster from another truck with guages. I tried just plugging the gauges cluster into the current harness but it doesn’t work. Anyone tried switching to gauges and what all is involved? Brad
Response:
i believe you’ll need to buy the senders that go with those gauges. the idiot light senders are most likely different than the gauge senders. -rob – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->===== Original Message From Brad ===== >I have a ‘79 GMC truck with trouble lights.
