i got a new gauge cluster

Post by pyistazty » Sun Jul 26, 2009 7:55 pm

i jacked a cluster out of an sxt yesterday, only because it has a tach, i plan on installing it soon, when i get some time...

the only thing is, i'm pretty sure the tach won't work if i install it right away, but i'm not totally sure, is there like a mod, or wiring anywhere to get it to work?

please and thanks

It's plug and play. The mileage will be different.

You could have just read the answer to the last ? in your other thread. And asked the first one in same thread. No need to start a new one.

The mileage can be reflashed to you cars mileage only if it is higher than what is on the replacement cluster. But that would prolly remove "cheap" from the equation.

you cant reflash the mileage. you can however use your existing circuit board as along as it already had a tach. i just swapped to a BUX same odometer :thumbup: got the BUX cluster while finding parts for a F150 at work today. i walked up to the car , litteraly pulled out the cluster :lol: gauges still work fine!
