take time to read the stickey's at the top of the forum, you will gain a lot of knowledge and understanding, with out using your hands.

It's normally down to 3 capacitors on the instrument panel, if you can solder its a few $$ for the parts or some companies offer a repair service like BBA Reman.com

Here are the boards and part locations.

Or you could buy a kit like on the link below and get a local radio shop to fit the parts

I used BBAREMAN through Ebay for $80.00 total. They went through all known issues, including dimmed needles which they made like new also. I can't say enough compliments about them. They also gave me a lifetime warranty, and had it back to me within 5 business days.
