Instrument Cluster Problems

[Konstantin Bogach]

Taka,  I had a problem with this gauge when I fixed infamouse soldering which caused intermitent speedo.  When I was ready to put everything together I noticed that all
of sudden arrow settle down on the middle of the scale.  I thought I did not touch it at all and blame everybody in house including cat.  I had to open the gauge.  It
turns out that arrow lever(I don't remember how it looks like) inside the gauge was misplaced.  Probably, it did not need much effort to do it and I somehow did it.
Put it in place and it still works.
