1988 244 DL Instrument Cluster wires / connectors

Post by mrjacobrussell »

I took out the gauge cluster so I could do the temperature board bypass (worked and was easy) I have the two large black plugs back in and the L shaped 3 conductor white plug in the center.


I didn't realize finding a picture of the rear plug locations would be such a challenge for me. I have a yellow/red a white/red and a blue wire left all single wires

Can anyone please help?

I pinned this globally, let's see if we can get an answer. It's slow this time of year.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

I have this actually its from Mitchell's onDemand.( have a VNC server running MOD and VIDA actually
I was trying to figure out those three single wires.
I still haven't figured out why there was a single wire connected to the double prong connector. (pretty sure it was blue ) I unfortunately did connect shift light wire or tach to the double pin and fried my Odometer it was working now isn't :(

I do have the speedo, Temp bypass trick worked to fix Temp gauge and fuel gauge works fine.

Guess I need to buy a new speed to pull the electronics off of it.

Sorry but auto electrics is not my best field of expertise.
You could try contacting another member ( pierce ). Maybe by a PM ?
He is particularly knowledgeable on Volvo electronics and especially the older models such as yours, based on the posts I have read whenever browsing the forum.
There are other members good on electrics nd related things also but it might take a little while for one or two to read your question and respond.
