I drive a 1987 Nissan Sentra which I love, but I have A couple of problems. My gas gauge and temp. gauge do not work. Every so often I will look down and they will be working. Whenever I push in the clutch, they quit working again and may not work again for months and then for only a couple minutes. Also, my highbeams quit working. Both bulbs are good, but whenever I switch to highbeams, they headlights go dark. They also used to work, but quit all the sudden. I bought the car used and am trying to fix it up. Any help with these problems will be greatly appreciated. I am a do it yourselfer, but need a little help. Thanks!

maybe you need to go to nissanforums.com. theres alot of B12 owners there that will know what your talking about.

Then why have an AF Nissan forum?

Dude, ther is a voltage regulator on the back of your instrument cluster. replace it (http://community.webshots.com/photo/73449102/73450200EhlYEb)

PopKorn and nacho nissan, (hum,makes me hungry), thanks for the help. I did find the answer quicker in the nissan forum, but both are good. I am thankful for both of your help, and I will look into the regulator on sunday and get back to you on Monday! Thanks again.
