The meter overhaul is complete (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)
The inside is sparkling clean too \u2606

I’m grateful for the consistently excellent finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I removed the hardened sponge from various spots
and covered them with
some spare sponge I had on hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original meter damper is convex
and the sleeve length is awkward, causing rattling.

I found a lovely
“H-type” damper from the reuse corner that

fits perfectly like Cinderella’s slipper!
It should sit snugly without any vibration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My plan to swap the bulbs for LEDs (on my own initiative)
has some that won’t light up for some reason.

Some I figured were okay
but others are questionable
so I checked the manual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ah, that one…
RLD
Back in that era

they wanted to make things a bit more convenient and safer
with various electrical and mechanical devices
installed throughout.


Since they’re no longer used,
there’s no reason they’d light up.
And now it all makes sense (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I’m going to label everything including the indicators
with “P-TOUCH.”

Looking back later and going “huh?” is such a hassle.
Checking the manual wiring is also a hassle.



If I do all the labeling at once upfront,
the rest will be easy!
That’s how it should be.

And honestly, the wiring configuration
around the meter area is pretty old-school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When inserting rubber sockets,
applying silicone grease makes it smooth~

Anything works really,
but I’ma “DuPont fan”<\/strong>
especially just for the name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wow! All done~
It’s shiny and feels great! \u266a
I thought so, but then

I suddenly remembered that part that broke off the other day.

The vehicle speed signal wire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Removing that part
shortens the wire length by just under 30mm.

Sure enough, it’s stretched tight and taut!

Since it’s M11, I’ve ordered
the part from Itoh.
Please wait a moment (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
