Re: Instrument cluster question

[JimJablonski <groovinjim@xxxxxxx>]

Update on my instrument cluster in case you were interested ... replaced the voltage limiter, the 8 little bulbs, removed and cleaned the lens, rewired it (bypassed MaMopar's nightmare amp gauge), installed the re-chromed cover, and got in back in the car.  Looks great, everything I want working, is working, and is back in business for the first time in 11 years.

A big thanks to all for sharing your knowledge and for tolerating the stupid questions.

Hi there folks,

Would appreciate your help solving a mystery,  Behind my instrument cluster, right near the voltage limiter, is what I can only say looks like a condenser (from a points and condenser type of set).  It has a black wire with a spade connector that is plugged into the center of the three holes where the voltage limiter is plugged in.  It also has a red wire that is - well - snipped off.

Question is - what is this thing and more importantly, where does the red wire go?  I can't seem to figure it out - at least it is not obvious.  The only thing I could image is that at one time it was spliced into the red wire that connects to the ammeter.  But those wires are long gone.

(I tried to add some pics with and without the voltage limiter connected.)

Please help!

Thank you,

Jim
