    Shift Indicator help!

    I recently replaced my stock cluster to one off a 78 550L. My old cluster used individual lights/LEDs to indicat the gear. The new/older cluster has a DIGITAL indicator. Everything plugs up nice and worked properly ONCE (4 months ago). Fast forward to a few days ago, I noticed that the indicator was cracked and the display showed 8. Have a replacement and still shows 8. Though it might be a bad ground; grounded right to frame and still the same thing. What am I doin wrong???

    Looks like all the leds are powered at the same time.
    Down by the countershaft is the rotary switch that turns on each gear light. As the shift drum rotates, a spring loaded "pin" grounds each indiviual segment, turning on the selected gear light. Somewhere the whole thing is going to ground, lighting up all the LEDs
