Message: [QUOTE="Charles, post: 1004366, member: 103"] On a 99 - 01 cluster if the needle is above the corner of the little battery rectangle in the middle of the gauge you're good to go. I can also tell minute problems based on how much it moves around the little "post" nearest the needle on that same rectangle. On my 99 the needle moves sharply when the glow plugs turn on or off, fuel pump too for that matter. If I key on and the needle is zipping away off the top of the little battery box, I either have no glow plugs, no fuel pump, or both. Nevermind watching the needle slowly drop if you lose an alternator. Nice to know whether or not it juuuuuust started dying, and still charging okay, or if it's dropping like a rock and you'd better not pass a single parts store, or shut it down.... Just basic stuff. Truck needs a volt meter.... Anybody got a manual cluster and PCM for an 02? I need the manual PCM for the PCS later anyway. I despise auto PCM's anyway.... This truck downshifted, then upshifted, then downshifted 5 times on a single hill not 1/2 mile long yesterday.... with the CRUISE SET!!! To say the shift strategy was retarded would be super kind.
