[s-cars] A big THANK YOU to Bob Pastore

[TM]

Let me clarify:

Type 44 post-facelift 100 and 200 circuit boards are interchangeable.

C4 100 and S4 circuit boards are interchangeable.

C4 boards do not work in type 44s and vice-versa.

We probably reversed the two bulbs with the condoms on them when
swapping the boards.  Also, re main boards: I think we determined that a
c4 S4 main board was different than the type 44 100 or 200.  The 100 and
200 had different part numbers but were visually the same and proved to
be interchangable.

Thanks to the generosity of Bob Pastore, my car's instrument cluster has
been fixed! :-)

Happy, happy!

One thing we've learned in doing some serious surgery to my cluster-
Type 44 100 ICs use a compatible main circuit board to my 200q20v.

I know this was told to me in the case of using a C4 100 board in an
UrS4, but not w/ regard to type 44s. Now I know that the type 44 boards
work.

Funny thing is, my original cluster had problems anyway- full tank of
gas,
1400+ miles to empty?!? Nearly empty tank of gas, still 600+ miles to
empty.

Now, the mileage indications are correct, as well as temperature and
everything else.

One thing I messed up- the clock and trip computer illumination is
somehow
reversed- it's dark when the lights are on, bright when the lights are
off. I don't mind it being bright w/ the lights off, but I can't read
the readouts with the lights on. Any ideas on what bulbs/connections
need to be reversed?
