Hi Dave, I just went through this myself. I was getting ready to send my temp gauge in to West Valley Instruments. It was $150 to rebuild the gauge or $200 if it needed a complete new bordon tube. I

About every 3 years my TR3A turn signal flasher starts malfunctioning. It works fine and then one day it will work fine on the right turn signal and the left turn signal will flash one time and stop.
