Where are the washers on an instrument cluster?
The washers were located underneath the resistor wires. Then remove each of the 7mm nuts that hold the gauges in place and connected to the instrument cluster enclosure.
What kind of tool do you use to repair an instrument cluster?
Here’s the list of tools I used to work on the instrument cluster: 1) Standard (flat blade) screwdriver 2) Phillips screwdriver 3) 7mm Nut Driver 4) Pliers 5) Soldering Iron and Electrical Solder 6) Electronics Cleaner and Q-Tips 7) Pink Eraser 8) Ohm Meter 9) Selectable AC to DC converter
Where are the screws on an instrument cluster?
There are two screws that hold the hard circuit board to the plastic instrument enclosure. Do not try to lift the hard circuit board out just yet. The final screw holding the platic circuit board in place was in the corner and was one of 6 screws used to connect the instrument enclosure backing to the front of the enclosure.
Where do you put solder on an instrument cluster?
To solder the rivets, I placed the flat of the tip across the top and edge of the rivet and placed the solder on the edge of the rivet (not on the tip of the iron). It only takes a little bit of solder. The objective is to make contact with the rivet and the copper material embedded in the plastic laminate at the edge of the rivet.
