Hey all, pulled dash to change bulbs in instrument panel (hopefully that does the trick). Not sure proper name but that Tron-looking sheet on back of instrument panel conducts to bulbs? Looks good to me… and i thought i had removed all remnants of rodent…
Yikes - what a mess! Yeah, that’s a printed flex circuit. The traces are copper and conduct the current to the bulbs and gauges.

That is scarry. I think I’d be cleaning and painting the area under the dash.
Good luck with the eviction. At least for this kind you don’t need a lawyer.

What do you think the chances are that i need to replace circuit board? Appears in fine shape (for 55 years old).
The printed circuit itself should be fine unless a critter has chewed through it. However, I would cleanup those corroded terminal posts with a bronze brush and WD40.
