Hey bro im chasing a capasitor for my 97 t4, from aus Great vid brother

@HaroldThePumpkin 6 месяцев назад

I switched out the capacitor, plugged the cluster back in and all the dials were back to normal except for the fuel gauge. Turns out I had pushed that one down a bit too far so there was too much friction against the clock surface. Backed it off and all is well. Thanks for this great video!

@valhallavw 6 месяцев назад

That's great news. So pleased the video helped. And yeah I did same thing. Fuel gauge never moved as I put it on too tight. 🤙🤙

@HaroldThePumpkin 5 месяцев назад

@@valhallavw It was fine for a couple of drives, and then the van sat for a few weeks. Today the dials are going crazy again, could something else be causing the capacitor to go bad, or was my soldering job inadequate?

@valhallavw 5 месяцев назад

@@HaroldThePumpkin hello mate sorry for the delay in replying. That's a tricky one. I've had no problems since mine was done. Touch wood lol. I would try again, maybe dodgy capacitor or soldering not quite right. Give board a good clean. Did you use flux solder ?

@HaroldThePumpkin 5 месяцев назад

@@valhallavw I didn't use flux, even though I thought I should. I was working with what was in my dad's garage. I'll give it another try with flux and a good cleaning!

@valhallavw 5 месяцев назад

@@HaroldThePumpkin yeah definitely use flux as this will clean the connection as its being soldered and give a better /proper connection.

Awesome video. Got 1 spare of these clocks with this problem and had to pay £380 for a replacement clocks as these are getting like hens teeth. Gonna give that a go so my van shows the correct millage and get the original back in. Only thing I'm struggling with is how does the clock, fuel and temp, millage clocks come out. Great video watched all ur t4 vids

@valhallavw 9 месяцев назад

Wow that's a lot of money. But they are getting rarer and rarer I suppose. Definitely worth giving it a go mate. The caps cost pennies, and it's a straightforward job. I have posted on a previous vid how to remove clock faces. But it's just a case of gentle pressure under the needles and they will slide of the pins. Then the clocks will be free to remove mate. Let me know how you get on 🤙🤙 and thanks so much for supporting the channel, we really appreciate it

My display went walkabout a while ago, watched your videos and had it stripped down a couple of times with no luck. Went on fb marketplace and got ripped off by some lowdown scrote for £95 So your latest fix looks good I’ll order one Great stuff my friend keep it up 👍

@davidtierney6041 4 месяца назад

Hi, great video, i have a 94 with the same issue will i need the capacitor or toe re-soulder the six conectors? Wanna be ready before i take it appart.

@valhallavw 4 месяца назад

Hi mate. Sorry for the late reply. Vw have a habit of putting whatever they like in the dash assembly lol. Well they do when it comes to mine. Mine was in a changeover year so I have allsorts of random parts on mine. Once you get the back off you will be able to see. The capacitors are relatively cheap to buy. And in either case you will be needing a soldering iron and some fluxed solder. 🤙🤙

@christeague7596 4 месяца назад

Great video...I have the same problem on my T4 1993 vintage.....would this fix work for me.....cheers

@valhallavw 4 месяца назад

Would obviously depend on the clocks you have mate. But it's worked on mine and a lot of others. You'll need to remove clocks and see what you got. There are other options depending on clock pcb pattern glad you found video useful, let me know if I can help. 🤙🤙

Hi there great videos I got same clocks as yours,problem I got I had a half shaft go on me,took it to a garage to get done.now I got no speedo / fuel/temp or time clock working I took van back,all he said was it needs new clock,s so I got van back off him now I’m driving round with no clocks have you come across this before ,cheers kev.

@johnjoe714 8 месяцев назад

Loved your video. Spot on .one thing you maybe able to help with .turned over to look at the solders.and was greeted with 3 small cogs lol. Do they go on the back off the temp fuel and speedo. Or should i put them on the small pin on each gauge. Hope you came across this lol .10,10 for videos

@valhallavw 8 месяцев назад

Hello mate. Thank you for your kind words and glad the vid helped, the small cogs are the gears that turn the needles. I presume your casings came open when you removed the needles. They go on the small pins in the needle housings. 🤙🤙🤙

Top work, man. I really respect that you took the time to do the necessary research and then share the info. It is so satisfying when you sort a problem out yourself, not to mention the money saved. Add to that the fact your hard work is going to help many other T4 owners. T4s! The content creating gift that never stops giving. 😂😂 Well done, sir.
