Re: {Chrysler 300} Instrument Cluster and loss of gauge function. On Ram K convertible

["'dave mason' via Chrysler 300 Club International" <chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One thing in addition to what Bob mentions that can be checked also is the 5-pin connector on the back of the circuit card which houses those gauges.  If you haven’t already tried, gently remove and reinstall the the connector at that point being careful of the pins on the card.  Sometimes it’s a loose connection; the 12V supply to the fuel gauge (which then provides 5.5 volts to temp gauge) comes in through that 5-pin connector.

Jeff I would put some green painters tape or similar on the lower dash sill below the cluster, to prevent scratching that up when removing the cluster…

Hi Gents

We have recently lost function of the temp and fuel gauges in our ram K. I have the service manual and read the procedure for removal. Does anyone have any tricks or the trade to make this easier? Figured I would ask if anyone had anything they learned to make it as easy as possible. 

Also looking for some guidance on what to look for once I get it apart to trouble shoot. 

Thanks

Jeff
