    Yeah brother I'll be out there in the garage adjusting crossgate shift linkage in the morning.

I reassembled all of it and everything worked perfectly after that.

    That being said, now that Delorean Europe has New remanufactured PCB's
    I will be replacing the old one since there are connector tabs popped loose.

    Those NOS and original boards have not held up and are utter shit.

    Get a new one from Ed. I did so with no regrets. I also advise updating the nuts from the original ones to brass ones for a better connection. I have enclosed those photos for you as all with the correct sizing. Good luck

    Finished Product. I feel like the cluster worked even better then before. More responsive gauges and brighter light function.

    I forgot to add that replacing the steel washers and nuts with brass helps conductivity and Home Depot has what you need, good point Ryan King.

    Where in NY are you by the way? I'm around Syracuse

    I just saw this. I will definitely plan on being there. Just got 10287 back with new tires and some exhaust work done so should be ready to travel.
