Caddy with dash from A-1 diesel Jetta has fried dashboard circuit board.  Any leads on good used printed circuit or someone knowledgable about repairs would be appreciated.

I'd try to find a used gauge cluster that is similar. Use that, or use its printed circuit on your current cluster.

I have one, it has a clock. LMK if it's of interest. I won't be able to test it though

Thanks for the help.  A local speedometer shop thinks they can repair the old board by soldering wires across the bad sections.  Guess I will give that a try first.  This board is actually the second one I have had in the truck.  The first one had so many wires soldered onto it that the guys at the shop ran out of room to make connections.
