[QUOTE="donald73d, post: 50630, member: 6074"] On my 843 you remove two large nuts & washers on the front inside of the cab, one on the left and one on the right. Save them in a container. They tend to get lost. Then standing on the bucket you lift the cab up all the way. Its a bit heavy. If you lift it a foot or two it will not stay, if you lift it all the way it will. (If inside, garage needs to be high). I would pull the gauge cluster and then with a jumper wire and switch on, ground the sender wire on the gauge to ground. It should go full scale. On my 843 its a purple wire. My fuel gauge is flacky also and I have one on order. The problem is sawdust has gotten inside all 3 of my gauges. The voltmeter will not go past 12V. The fuel gauge shows empty when it full. With the fuel gauge in my hand I could see the saw dust float around. I am replacing the temp gauge as its critical and if the engine were to overheat and the gauge not show it, that would be very bad. The gauges from Bobcat are about $25. The gauge cluster on my 843 is held in by 3 bolts on the outside. The wiring diagram is in the operators manual along with the service manual.. [/QUOTE]
