CharlesE221 Posted November 1, 2022 Report Share Posted November 1, 2022 Hello everyone, bought mine a year or so ago. Had many things that I've been going around and fixing. New exhaust system, re-sealed fuel tank, new clutch master cylinder, and probably a bunch of other stuff I've since forgotten since I've gotten it. A decent chunk of the interior is missing but I'm not too pressed on finding new parts for it. I'll probably try and get some 3D printed. I know the quality may not be exact but it's better then nothing I supposed. Currently one of my last biggest obstacles is the dash. I have the Technica digital dash but it doesn't work all to great. Some of the lights such as the battery light and the dimmer lights work, but the main ones don't appear to work unless it's left on after a while and even then it doesn't always do cut on. Would anyone know of any good places to send it for repair? I am under the impression that it is bad solders on some resistors, but I do not know much about circuitry to even know if that's correct. When I first checked it had a bunch of gunk on it that I cleaned off with IPA but it still doesn't work entirely. Still working on my days off but hopeful the year of work will be worth it. Any suggestions on dash would be much appreciated and thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87star Posted November 2, 2022 Report Share Posted November 2, 2022 That gunk was the electrolytic capacitors puking their guts out, I had to replace most of mine on the board. You can get the specs off the outside of the capacitors to replace them. Tedious but doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedious but doable. also make sure when you re-cap the polarity of the capacitors is the same, there is a line on the side of the capacitor to indicate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
