speedo wacky 91'200-20vtq(looking for photo of wire to solder)
A few months back I saw a photo of what 2 wires to solder on the back of my cluster, but now can't find it in the archives. Anyone know where it is? Many thanks, Michael

jumper style pins
I didn't find any cold solder joints on my IC.
Instead, I bent the jumper style pins slightly and sprayed some contact cleaner. and reassembled it.
3 weeks now and the speedo is steady for the most part. Only 2 occasions where I got the bounce since applying the spray and helping the contacts by bending the pins. I think adding some solder to the pins to increase the gauge might be a good idea.
My soldering skills are non existant, hence my decision to not re-engineer the speedo cluster as some of the more technically talented 200 owners have done in the past.
