    Pls Help Guys!! Where Can I Buy At Least A Second Hand Instrument Panel Of 1995 Tamaraw Fx Diesel? Or Can Anybody Recommend A Shop Or A Mechanic Who Can Fix Temp Gauge? It Aint Working!!

    Cluster yan kaya buong Instrument panel ang recommended nila na palitan.

    Pero AFAIK analog ang mga temp gauge... it is usually a magnetic pointer...wherein yung kabilang end ng sensor nito is a thermocouple that produces some voltage in it pagnainitan. The electric current will create a magnetic field kaya gagalaw ang pointer.

    Do you have a picture ng gauge mo? Kung pabilog lang kasi ito at hindi nakatandem sa fuel gauge baka pede itong "butasin" at palitan ng generic temp gauge (which is usually about 2" diameter) na pedeng magfit sa "binutas" mo na puesto.... just a wild thought.

    Option 2 place the new gauge someplace else on your dash board and connect the sensor nito in place of the original sensor.

    Tnx Wildthing, Actually Same Recommendation Kayo With Rey Electrical In Marikina, They Recommend To Install Mechanical Gauge Pero Parang Di Ko Type Yun. Your Wild Thought Will Do Siguro Pero Ask Ko Yung Mechanic Kung Kaya Nya, If Not Probably Pag Iipunan Ko Na Lang Yung Brand New Panel. Anybody!! Baka Meron Kayo Alam Surplus Ng Instrument Panel Or Bilihan Ng Surplus Parts Ng Tamaraw Fx Before Ako Makabili Ng Brand New!! Ot Lang...san Kaya Makakabili Ng Rota Mag Wheels 13" Madami Kasi 14" Or Higher Kaya Lang Bago Pa Tires Ko. Kung Trade In Naman Masyado Mahal. Tnx Uli Sa Mag Rereply

    Hey Crusader,
    Ang problem ko naman is di na malakas yung light sa panel kaya di ko na nakikita gauges ko sa gabi, I wonder if kaya nilang palitan ng bulbs or palit sa leds para luminaw naman miski unti. Thanks.

    Boss Chito,

    Are you in the area this Saturday? May pasok ako, we can take a look at your dash lights if you want.
