G'day all,

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on part numbers that I can't find much info on. The number on the tag on the output shaft is 82DA-7003-AB    0503-019 2717 and the number on the box is 065124R TF3.

Any info always greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Falcon250.

The FC LTD cluster you have, won't work in your Falcon.

 

The FC FD LTD and ZJ ZK Fairlanes have different pin configuration in the back (and different circuit board), due to the warning lights being on the side binnacle on the LTD Fairlane, where as on the Falcon, the warning lights are in the cluster around the gauges. 

 

Check the LTD cluster and you'll see that the warning light sections are all blanked out, except for the Hi Beam light.

 

Also look at the back and compare the pins to what you have on your S pack cluster and you'll see what I'm talking about.

 

The best and simplest way would be for you to get your original S Pack cluster and have the Tacho re-calibrated.

 

Too bad you're not in Brisbane, I would do it for you for free, but there should be an Instrument shop near you.  You can even ask them for a price over the phone, as it's a very common job.  Takes about 15 minutes if they have the right equipment.

 

Don't try doing it yourself.  You need special equipment or it will be messed up.

Cheers VDO, I pretty soon realised the difference in pin config after I'd got the cluster, I just used the tacho bit in my s-pack cluster thinking that would sort it, thanks for your answer.

G'day all,

I have recently acquired a V8 dash cluster from a 79 LTD to use the tacho in my XE S Pack cluster (fitted with 351 clevo), I've fitted the tacho but can't get the gauge to display correctly, is there anything I have to change on the circuit board to compensate?

Cheers

Yours started off clean compared to mine.

LOL yours must have been absolutely shagged! Such an easy problem to fix when you get great posts like this to follow!

G'day again All,
 
Well I've finally fixed this dodgy fuel sender thank god! I followed agentkiwi's link and it worked a treat, attached are some pics of what I encountered.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions, I would have been stuffed without them!

Cheers,

Falcon250.

G'day all,

I need to replace my fuel sender unit the stuffed one I have is coded 82da-9275-aa the unit I got from a mate is coded 78da-9275-cd would these be interchangeable?

Cheers,
