( Don't know if your instrument panel is built the same as my Class III machine but about 6 months ago mine quit also. Everything else checked out so it boiled down to replacing the instrument panel which wasn't cheap. ...)

Mike - By any chance did you have one of those instrument panels that had problems with fogging up or getting condensation inside it? Mine has done that since new. I was concerned about it eventually causing some sort of electrical problems. Your cure for your problem sounds as though you might have had the condensation problme as well.

Now my temp guage has also stopped working... makes me wonder if my concern was well-founded.

Yes John mine fogged since new. I was sent a New Holland replacement cluster and it fogged also, plus with the replacement one of the idiot lights intermittently flashed on an off taunting me. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I sent it back and reinstalled the original cluster. I have come to find out that if the tractor sits outside and is the same temperature as the ambient air temperature the cluster doesn't fog. If the tractor is in the heated pole barn and the ambient temperature is colder outside then it will fog when rolled out of the barn.

I think this is referred to a cluster-(fill in the blanks)
