Inclinometer

So on my 1986 Runner I have the inclinometer on the dash. It is non-functional though. My questions are are they fixable? Is it worth fixing or is just a gimmick to add on to the cost when it was new? Seems to be kind of a neat thing but I have never seen another one. So help me out here. It is in the unlock position but I got nothing. Thanks in advance.

what do you mean that its not functional ?, whats not working on it ?. Its just a mechanical gauge cluster, the only electrical on it is for the back lighting.

I assume this is the factory Inclinometer with 3 bubble gauges (altimeter, pitch, and roll)? I see them for sale often (at least the 2nd gen versions....)

Hey found one for ya! https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f109...r-grey-216037/

Yes this is the factory one that mounts on the top of the dash in the middle. By not working I mean it does not register anything. The incline always shows O and the altitude never moves. The light in the back works when I turn the lights on but thats about it.
