In Reply to: Chaning gage illumination bulbs. posted by Fedde Engler on October 06, 2000 at 02:34:11:
Hello fellows,
Anyone out there who has some description of what to remove and how to remove parts of the front panel to replace the gage illumination bulbs?
The Dealer in my town is a Stealer that almost always gives me prices way of the acceptance scale, so if I can fix this myself, I surely want to give it a try.
Any information would be highly appreciated...
Best regards,
Fedde
The factory service manual procedure involves removing the steering wheel to get the cluster out. If your dealer follows this procedure, he will probably charge you for an hour or two of labor.
I have found that you can carefully work the cluster out without removing the wheel,if you extend the wheel all the way out and down.
2 screws on the bezel, and 2 screws on the gauge cluster.
Be carefull not to break any plastic tabs or bits.
There are 3 different wattage bulbs for blinkers, odometer, warning lights, and illumination.
They are clearly marked and color coded, and can be replaced from the back of the cluster without opening it up.
1/4 turn CCW to remove, 1/4 turn CW to install.
