1968 Instrament Cluster Not Working

Hello all, I am new to this site. I just traded my 1992 modded Eclipse for a very nice 1968 F100 Ranger, with a built 302, hooker headers, Edlebrock 650cc carb, Flowmasters, and custom exhaust and since I grew up riding in my grandpas's 1974 (he had since it was new), my whole family has been Ford lovers, I think it was a good trade both ways. I was wondering if anyone can tell me what would cause the entire instrament cluster not to work. I looked for a fuse and could'nt find one for the cluster. Any advice would be greatly appreciated,

Sounds like a Instrument Cluster Voltage Regulator being bad to me.

Comon Problem.

Not too familiar with the "Pre-1971" Clusters though.

Welcome to FTE

C6DZ10804A .. ICVR = Instrument Cluster Voltage Regulator (Motorcraft GR510) / Obsolete

Fits: 1967/69 F100/350.

Parts stores carry these, but do one of two things.

Take the old one with you, or the Motorcraft part number.

The Motorcraft part number can be crossed over to other brands.

No Motorcarft part number, left the old one at home:

There are dozens of these ICVR's, if you get the wrong one, you'll be PO'd when you get back home, only to find it won't work.

Autoparts store parts catalogs aren't very reliable.

Look on this page among the FTE sponsors for links to the following:

MAR-K / AUTO KRAFTERS / NATIONAL PARTS DEPOT / BLUE OVAL TRUCK PARTS / MAC'S ANTIQUE AUTO.

Catalogs are available online, but don't expect "low buck" prices from anyone.

The cheaper the price, the poorer the quality.
