  1. The build that AceJime put up works. Just fixed my '91 pathy this way. As long as the water temp and fuel gauge fail simultaneously, you can be certain that it is the gauge cluster VR. I made something similar a while back to adjust the voltage of my MAP sensor on my jeep, so the build was easy for me. To fix this nuisance, it boils down to either: 1) Go to the junkyard and search tirelessly for another pathy to strip the gauge cluster for a possibly faulty regulator to install on your rig. 2) Dealer part purchase. Probably $20-30 for one. Just a guess. OR 3) Buy the radio shack parts and make yourself a regulator for under 6 bux (if you have a soldering iron and enough common sense to unlock your door and let yourself inside at night, you can do this no problem.) I used a generic adjustable VR (they're all the same), a 1k cermet potentiometer and a 100k Ohm resistor...like a $5 bag of goodies. Then you can PCB board it, or just solder the mess together and tuck it behind your cluster for hassle free operation. I'm not going to re-hash my build but i will have pics of the built VR assy soon, but for now here is a diagram to encourage those who might attempt to do this themselves. I will add that this is a simple build. You only have to solder a few connections, and you're done. Or paypal me a few bucks and I'll start shipping these things out. =-] KUDOS ACEJIME
