'71 Bus Dash Lights
I was messing around and had the cluster out to install a clock. Now I don't have dash lights, but there is a wire hanging from the back of the cluster. I checked the fuse box and did not see where the wire went. By any chance it came of the light switch?

Sure. But let us not guess. Your Bentley wiring diagram will tell you that the illumination wiring is gray/red. It will tell you which terminal on the light switch is the source for the entire daisy chain of instrument illumination.foxtail1 wrote:I was messing around and had the cluster out to install a clock.

In my 71, when I hit the turn signal the Brake light comes on, very annoying.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
