WTB: 1990 V8 Instrument Cluster PortlandOR
Mine is PT 3.6, ATU, black faced cluster, pn 441919930X.
Issue is intermittent coolant temp and gas gages and assorted chimes, compounded by various idiot lights randomly coming on. Yesterday, electric radiator fan quit working too which gets relay controls from cluster. I pulled IC apart a few years ago and didn't see any obvious cold solder joints or defective pins or cables. Increasing IC abuse while beating the top of dash is harder to get it to stablize.
Only fairly low mileage <100k cluster is requested. I am on the 2nd cluster with 152k on it, and it has been bad for 20k. I don't want another imminent failure coming along. Just trying to get another 30k miles before the 200k melt.
Tall order I know.
