Re: 49 instrument and switch cluster

Dash and instrument cluster lights are another place where the old fabric and rubber insulation shrinks back and/or falls away leaving bare wires exiting the center hole in the shell. The old plastic or vinyl insulation on the later cars shrinks too. All is well until you hit a bump large enough to jar the wiring or you go reaching under the dash for some reason and move the wires. Then you get to figure out why no dash lights or the headlight circuit breaker keeps cycling on and off.
