Hi Everyone,

My 1990 Cadillac Brougham instrument cluster works sometimes and not others. If I smack the dashboard gently with my hand the instrument cluster works for a week or so and then goes black again.

Is it the instrument cluster or just a bad electrical connection; like a bad ground wire or such?

Any one else had this experience and how did you fix it?

Thanks,


Mike

My 90 does the same thing. i spent some time with a shop manual trying to figure it out. from what i gather its something inside the cluster. i went so far as to pull the cluster apart to see if i could see any loose connections, broken solider(sp?) and found nothing. i've come to the conclusion that its one of the circut board components. Im going to R&R the cluster once i finally get fed up with tapping the cluster all the time lol.
