Gauge Cluster Wiring Method
Removing wires from the harnesses

 

When you have taken out the 3 plugs from the back of the Gauge cluster, the wires will
have to be re-arranged to the new specs detailed in my word file.  To save you
the sloppy mess of cutting and splicing the wires, I found an awesome
way that involves no cutting, solder, or tape.

 


1.  Pull open the tabs on either side of the black harness:
 


 

2.  Taking a tiny screw driver, you will find a small plastic hook that holds the pin in from the center.
 

>  It's a tough one to find, but once you find it you'll be able to breeze through the rest.


3.  When it's unhooked, the pin will slide right out.  Do this same procedure for all the wires and then set the plastic harnesses aside (no two are alike...make sure that when you go to the new cluster, you test fit the empty harness to the right socket)
 

>  There's the whole thing, wire and pin:


4.  Once they're all out, you can slide the pins into their new location.
 

>  As you slide it in, the pin will snap into place and be completely secure.


5.  Lastly, don't forget to snap the tab back on and you're done.
