Re: Gauges Working Again!

Update, After checking out the fuel tank sender, I wasn’t getting any reaction on my meter. So I replaced the the tank sender, hoses, and wires. Turned car on and gauge still wasn’t working. Back under the dash I went with my meter. Found voltage pulses going into gauge but nothing on tank side. Replaced fuel gauge and viola! Gauge is working again! So nice to have all gauges and warning lights working as they should.

While I was under the dashboard , I replaced the instrument cluster voltage regulator. I just wanted to point out its location. It’s mounted on the back of the speedometer directly above the steering column. A real treat to reach I may add.

Gauges Working Again!

After I put my 57 wagon back together a few years back…I only had the Gen. light working. Recently I dove in underneath the dash. Found the oil warning light bulb and the parking brake warning bulb were burned out. Both were ok when I took car apart! So today I attacked the engine temp gauge. Found a defective sender was the issue. Had to lay across the left front fender half way into the engine compartment to get that little bugger switched out. Now onto to the nonopt fuel gauge.

I must apologize for not getting back to you. I had some medical issues to deal with. Do you still need some photos? There are quite a few unique parts you would need to hunt down to mount supercharger the way the factory did.

This switch also operates the back up lights. But be advised...the headlights or parking lights have to be on in order for the back up lights to operate.

I had the same issue with my 1957 Clipperw wagon. I gVe up trying to paint the centers. I just bought another Clipper set with nice centers.
Was hoping the fellow who makes the decals for the Senior Packard wheel covers would make the Clipper ships wheel decal. No luck there.

Hope your car found a good home...
It must have a very interesting history to tell.
Do you know any of its history?

Saw an advertisement from Dodge or Ram trucks today proclaiming a new feature on their pickup trucks. A self leveling bed! Truely what is old is now new! :)

Hi Randy, you still look the same! Did the young lady become your wife?
Was the 1952 Mayfair the Packard that made you a Packard collector?
I fell in love with a 1941 120 a neighbor owned. It was two tone, sorta tan and brown combo. I'd run down to the street and watch him drive by.

Hi Bigkev,
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend.
I guess the Mayfair Convertible misnomer is very prevalent on the internet.
Guess the internet is similar to paper, it won't move when anything is written on it.
