The high beam indicator could be on it's own ground, or the dash lights rheostat in the light switch could be corroded/not making contact/otherwise non-functional,
Or, of course, the dash lights could be turned all the way down/off.
Agreed
It is separate its a 2 wire circuit however it all runs into a single modular plug which mounts to the back of the cluster.
It attaches to a paper thin printed circuit sheet which feeds power to about 8 different light bulbs for instrument, blinker lights plus at least 4/5 warning lamps seatbelts, lights on, oil, brakes etc...
Like was mentioned before a few minutes pulling the dash cluster-- all front mounted screws around the perimeter of the instrument panel, a speedo cable and tach wire and you are all set for a inspection of your dash cluster..
Ford manufactured the part in 2 pieces using 2 different types of white plastic unfortunately the back part deteriorates badly and ends up crumbling in your hand while trying to changes bulbs etc... I ended up soldering mine directly to the circuit sheet.
as far as the panel being brittle you might be in luck considering your car hasn't see daylight in 24 years.
ps check the fuse its a 5 amp fuse about 1/4 long you must be a contortionist to perform this act or it involves standing on your head.
You'll find out welcome the the II world.

Has anyone of you guys out there ever rebuild a Holley 5200?
My son did the honor of rebuilding the carb but now we're lost as to where the 2 ball bearings go in the carb. Anybody?????

Does anyone know if this intake will fit a 2.3?
Timing belt may have jumped a tooth. Not too uncommon for a Pinto motor.

Being as it's not a "Pinto Motor" but a 302 V8 that would be difficult. But thanks...
