[QUOTE="mwolson, post: 16959929, member: 16006"] I just finished working on a couple of clusters that were sent to me, a cluster from the guy's car and a donor cluster plus a spare Glowhut inverter. It turned out that all 3 inverters were fully functional. The EL panel from his car was dead, but the EL panel from the donor cluster was functional. I put the functional panel into his car's cluster and it is now working again. The dead EL panel read about 15K ohms when unplugged from the inverter, so that seems to be a pretty good diagnostic to check the EL panels. At this point, I have seen two failed EL panels and only one failed inverter so far. It isn't enough data to decide anything, but I am starting to wonder if the EL panels are less reliable than the inverters are. Still looking for failed inverters to diagnose... [/QUOTE]
