Cluster Dead........changing Out Question.

[FantasiGS400]

Hi there. I have a 98 GS400. One day I started the car up and notice that the RPM and fuel gauge is dead. All the other gauges work fine. Car runs fine. My question is I found another Cluster, but it has about 8,000 miles more. Can I just install that cluster or is it not gonna work cause the mileage isn't the same? I really don't care about the mileage being more. I just need it to work.

So can I just install the new cluster? I heard somewhere that if the mileage isn't reset properly by the dealers the new cluster will just show XXXXXX or blank.

Thanks for the help........

no it will show whatever the mileage on the new one had when removed from the donor car.

if you drive as much as me just wait like 6-7 months and then plug new unit up and you should be within 100 miles of the 8000 u were over..... :D
