Default Tailights and gauge cluster blinks on and off???

Hey guys, RHD 92 240, my gauge cluster lights will go on and off or sometiems work and then quit and vice versa.... It also works hand in hand with just the tailights at the same time....

Any suggestions???

Fuses seem to be good, all wires are good (from what I can tell) ...

Please need some suggestions or advice...

so people know how to conceal shitty work; therefore, who did the rhd conversion?

Look oem and function oem are 2 extremely different outcomes.

It's probably a grounding issue. 1, it sounds like grounding. 2, God only knows what's under your dash with that RHD conversion.

Well, the taillights (running lights) and Gauge Cluster are the same fuse.. so It could be a grounding issue? but every time my mine grounded off it blew the fuse.. (*like in desoto when my fender blinker light got all mangled and grounded off on the fender and had to drive all the way back to Tampa w/ no running lights)

Teh wires are clean, It did blow a fuse once and that was it.... Other then that has not blown a fuse since..... K4rr told me to check the wires to the cd player, as it was common to short out or have a grounding problem.... I am going to try that tonight..
