Ok so I bought this 1988 a few months ago but a few things have happened. I gave it a quick wash the other day, rode the day after and noticed condensation in the dash. Took it apart to replace bulbs and saw quite a bit of corrosion in there. Cleaned it up the best I could but I’m wondering if the blue ribbon carries the dash illumination cause there are a few spots that were coming apart and corroded. I get no dash lights now when the bikes turned or or running in my semi dark garage. Any advice besides buying a new cluster?

You can repair the traces on the flexible circuit. Easy way to redraw the broken traces with a conductive in pen, cleaning carefully at both ends. The pens are available from your friendly electronics store. The another way is to by a length of multicoloured ribbon cable available at the same place. Find both ends of the broken trace and solder in a strand of the cable on to where it starts at a solid terminal to where it terminates at a solid terminal.
