Testing speedo removed from instrument cluster 900

Will do Steve. A signal generator woud be perfect all right, but I don’t know when I’d ever get to use it again. Maybe I can borrow or rent one. I’ve just ordered the capacitors from Mouser - they seem to be a really good place - $1.40 for 5 capacitors - most places won’t even deal with small orders like that. I couldn’t find the big orange one on their site (although I’m sure they would have it), but I think I can get one locally. I never would have attempted repairing the speedo myself if it wasn’t for the great description and pictures on the FAQ site. I just lifted the pointer over the 0 stop - I don’t think I would have tried that on my own either - you have to lift it pretty high to clear the peg and it’s pretty scary. No problem though it went over the peg beautifully - a lot easier than unsoldering the board. I’ll keep the forum informed of my progress. It will probably be a few weeks before I get the caps.
