I double checked to make sure there was not an interrupted circuit like the manual had warned and this time everything was fine. Well I put the new one in ( made sure it was in right ) and still, my gauges do not work. So I drove around for a few days without my gauges until I got my new circuit board in.

I looked up in my original 1970 shop manuals what the circuits did and sure enough if there is one interrupted circuit the gauges will not function. The overall condition of the board was ok but there was one interrupted circuit on it. After my car was re-wired I put in a new circuit board from CJ Pony Parts but I wasnt paying attention and put my plug in upside down ( cuz I was anxious to drive my car again ) Needless to say that melted a section of my new circuit board. What originally happened was my original circuit board melted and I "fixed" it a few years ago, and that lead to my ignition switch frying which prompted my entire underdash wiring system to be replaced ( I really screwed up with this one lol ). And yes my dash lights do work its like I have 3 dead gauges. I didnt replace that when I re-wired my car but it was working before the repair. My dash was grounded when I tested it but my dash pad was not on ( that shouldnt make a difference ) And im pretty sure the CVR box you're talking about is located just below my fuse block on my mach1. HOpe this helps abit! Surely someone else will chime in! :bigthumbsup That's about all I can offer you without being there. Do your dash lights work?(I can't remember without looking in my shop manual if the dash lights go through the CVR). Of course you need to make sure there is voltage leading up to the CVR, if there is no voltage going to it, then you have to dig more. I put an electronic CVR in my '67 Mustang. The CVR maintains proper amount of voltage going to your gauges so as not to melt them! If the points inside the little widgit becomes "old" and pitted, it won't work, thus the gauges won't work. Please don't be confused and think I mean your Voltage regulator underneath your hood). Of course always looking for the least possible thing that could go wrong(BE SURE YOUR DASH IS GROUNDED first, ie), I'd have to look closely at your Constant voltage regulator(I'm not familiar with the '70 model, but it's probably mounted behind your dash like my '67)). HI! :wavey, dne' here! Do a search on this little critter.
