Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

In my '83 westy behind the instrument cluster is that three pronged black
square thingy that I guess regulates the smoothness of the temp and Fuel
gauge movement...ya with me? Well, it keeps blowing out, not working, taking
a dump....at first I thought it may have been a short in the gauges or the
circuit "ribbon" and replaced them all with the gauges and ribbon from
another cluster. Everything was fine for about two weeks and....well I am
writing to you all to see if ya got any Ideas or fixes cuz the thing took a
dive on me again....

Making me crazy!
