Originality / 69 Console gauge lights on with ignition acc/off/on, but off in run or start
« on: May 16, 2021, 02:16:51 AM »
Hello,
I purchased a second 69 (original SS/RS 350 4 spd convertible) about a year ago and have been fixing little issues. One thing I have not looked at yet and hoping someone may have encountered before and have insight into the place for me to look:
With the parking or headlights on, the console gauge lights are on with the ignition switch in the acc., off, and on positions, but go off in the run and start positions.
Since the lights work in some ignition switch positions it does not appear to be a ground issue, so I am gong to start looking for a short or other cause.
If anyone has encountered a similar situation I would appreciate hearing what a potential cause/fix for the same condition might be.
Thanks,
Dave
