83 GL instrument cluster wiring

[wilsonia]

I am attempting to replace my blown digital dash in my GL-10 with an analog one I pulled from the junkyard. I have been searching for a pinout for the analog instrument cluster but haven't had any luck (links are broken).

I did find a pinout for the digital dash in the FSM, which is half the battle.

If anybody has this it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Let's see if I can help.

Other way to do it is DIY the pinouts by tracing each pin behind the instrument cluster back to where it comes from.

Thank you so much @555jay. Between that and tracing I think I've got it figure out.

 

Here's the digi dash pinout for anyone interested. I'm working on a table of connections that I plan to try that I will post once I've tested it.

Sorry, I read the GL-10 bit and immediately thought of the L series EA82 model, not the EA81 models. 

I’ve found the easiest way to sort this out is to always grab the wiring behind the dashboard that matches the instrument cluster you’re wanting to use. 

These wiring looms are interchangeable plug and play swaps. This is how I go from the factory three gauge cluster in the brumby/brat to the longer six gauge cluster (with matching dashboard so it all fits). Our brumby/brats down here didn’t come with the fancier instrument cluster options like many US delivered brats had from factory. 

At the end of the day with a bit of work it’s all Lego  

All the best!
