Gauge cluster

I got my cab painted and putting the interior back together. I had to get another gauge cluster because the speedo needle was broken off, so I plugged the new one and the turn signal lights on the cluster stay on when you turn the lights on. Any ideas why. Also there’s a little light with a blue cap on it on the left side. Where does that go.

I think the light on the left with the blue cap you mention should have a little clip on it and it snaps in the the bezel for the light above the wiper and headlight *****.

For your other issue, did you get a new printed circuit? If not check to see if some of the "fingers" where the plug from the wiring harness connects to see if any of them may have come loose.

We used some of the UV activated super glue to repair ours. It looks a little rough, but so far so good for over 3 years now.
