Gauge Cluster Grounds - Where are they!

[seaboltman]

Ok i went to clean the grounds for my gauge cluster today and... Ill have to admit that i couldn't see where it was grounded to. During something later today i saw a few grounds that are right under where the fuse box is, on the inside of the car, Are those the ones for the gauges? Thanks for the help.

When I was having trouble getting my gauge cluster to light up, it was the brown wires that you're talking about that fixed my problem. Hope it works for you.

Yea.. the grounds inside the car under the fusebox.. Driver's footwell. I cleaning those and my seatbelt light stopped flickering. Haven't seen any *behind* the gauge cluster on the few occasions that I took it out. On the autos, I've also found grounds:

Back of rear hatch (for tail lights i presume?)

Front of car, under hood, driver's side by radiator/driverside headlight

Drivers side, under hood by windshield.. Underneath that plastic housing that lets the rain drain off.

And interestingly enough (at least on autos).. underneath the car, about 3/4ths toward the rear, near the wheel wells.. Dunno wtf those are for.
