Thanks for the help guys I have just been going off of the wiring diagrams on cool cats and trial and error with a test light I think I saw a little smoke coming from the back of the alternator side of the cluster so I unplugged it and  the battery. as far as I know the cluster is a 85,86 turbo stick car I bought it off of ebay mine is a base  5.0 car all the other guages work except for tax the alternator gauge and haven't tested the speedo I did lupe both gray and yellow wires with the green and red alt wire the battery died I'm waiting on a charger.
