Instrument Cluster - Installation

INSTALLATION

WARNING: Disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, Occupant Classification System (OCS), seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.

CLUSTER ASSEMBLY





1. Position the instrument cluster (1) close enough to the instrument panel to reconnect the instrument panel wire harness connectors to the connector receptacles on the back of the cluster housing.
2. Position the instrument cluster mounting tabs to the mounting holes in the instrument panel base trim (2).
3. Install and tighten the four screws (3) that secure the mounting tabs of the instrument cluster. Tighten the screws to 2 Nm (17 in. lbs.).
4. Reinstall the cluster bezel onto the instrument panel. Instrument Cluster Bezel - Installation.
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.

NOTE: Certain indicators in this instrument cluster are automatically configured. This feature allows those indicators to be activated or deactivated for compatibility with certain optional equipment. If a problem is noted that involves improper illumination of an indicator, disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. After about five minutes, reconnect the battery negative cable and turn the ignition switch to the ON position. The instrument cluster should automatically relearn the equipment in the vehicle and properly configure the configurable indicators accordingly.

CLUSTER LENS, AND HOOD AND MASK UNIT





1. If removed, position the cluster hood and mask unit (4) over the face of the cluster display (2) and cluster housing (1). Be certain that the odometer/trip odometer switch push button (3) is inserted through the clearance hole in the mask.
2. Working around the perimeter of the cluster, press the hood and mask over the face of the cluster housing until each of the integral latch features is fully engaged in the receptacles of the housing.
3. Position the cluster lens (5) over the face of the cluster hood and mask unit. Be certain that the rubber grommet for the odometer/trip odometer switch push button is installed in the clearance hole in the lens, and that the push button is engaged through the grommet.
4. Working around the perimeter of the cluster, press the lens over the face of the hood and mask until each of the integral latch features is fully engaged in the receptacles of the hood and mask or the cluster housing.
