srgilbert Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Well it's time to send my cluster off to Jim Walker however I cannot figure how to get it out. I took off the (2) bottom screws and the 95 unlike earlier years does not seem to have screws at the top to hold it in. Can anyone help me to figure out what is holding it in? I tried pulling on the tabs on the bottom (perhaps 4 of them) and no budge. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look closely on the top, you will see 2 small opening on the top of your dash, probebly enough for a flat head to go in. All you need to do (CAREFULLY) is to insert a flat head there, and press on the 2 pressure clips to release the cluster, and that is all. I had the same problem your facing, and had to put it back together and do it all over again after some help on the forum. Just look carefully for those 2 spots, might have to pull on the trim above the cluster to see them. BECAREFUL not to bend thee trim TOO hard. Good luck.

It was a struggle - not sure how I will be able to get all the connectors back but it is out. I recommend taking off the steering wheel cover to get a bit more room.

bossmover Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I'm still trying to find out how to get the instrument cluster panel off. I see post on removing bottom screws and a small screw driver to pop the clips on top. Do you start from the bottom panel and work up, and remove the panel around the ignition, and all the covers around the column, it's very confusing, no one really explains how to do it. All help would be appreciated. Trying to do this tomorrow, took day off from work, so I can send it out for repair. Lol, please I need help !

Exhaustgases Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I've only done it on 1990 to 1992. Heres a tutorial for that, maybe they are close to the same. http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/electrical/instrumentcluster.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
