Hi,
A buddies F150 has several gauges in his dash panel that are intermittantly
giving incorrect readings. Since more than one gauge is affected we suspect
a bad ground or defective foil pattern on the lex cicuit board. does any one
have or know a source for the gauge schematic and/or printed circuit layout
for this year. Our books show for earlier models but nothing for this year.
Thanks,
Tom

I don't know what "defective foil pattern on the lex cicuit board" is, but
if several gauges are wacky at the same time, I would suspect a voltage
problem with the charging system, or a bad gauge voltage regulator (located
on the printer circuit board. You could be on the right track with bad
ground; sometimes the wiring connector at the circuit board is loose.
