Trying to remove the instrument cluster, got all screws out, but the darn wiring connectors are tough to remove ....how does the big one to the far right (towards drivers side window) come out....tried everything.....wont budge.

It will John,It just unplugs.

1 try weetabix for breakfast

 

2 use a small screwdriver to open the clip on the connection;)

3 dont put lots of power or u will brake somehting in the near section and beleive me stuff there cost a lot

I've opened the clips on the side......(they just seem to fall away and do nothing) but it wont budge.........If I pull any harder I'm afraid I will B****r it up for good.

All I want to do is to try and fix the odometer which stopped working last week.

 

John

John,once you unclip the small lug,there is NOTHING else that holds it together.

Thanks Mac.........I will take another look

 

 

John

Yipeeee........Thanks Mac,

 

I was unclipping those things all along the side, instead of gripping and pushing together the 2 lugs in the middle......The key was when you said "the small lug"

 

Thanks a million,

 

John

If you cant grip it then try pliers,but dont crush it;)

Done it Mac..........got it all apart........found why the odometer was not working, motor a bit loose, spiral gear was not contacting the other gear.

Now, lets hope it goes back ok.

 

Thanks a bunch.

 

John

Thanks everyone...........Got it back together, and you know what ? Everything works - including the odometer (which is why I took it apart)

Doesnt it make you feel good when everything goes right!!

 

Cheers

 

John

Nice one John;)
