    I love those types of displays. Wish newer cars would have these.

    the KIT comes with full fitting instructions - a printed 10 pages long manual plus a very detailed video (much more detailed than this one) that shows every single detail, including disassembly, needle removal, and so on.

      Hey man, I need to get one fix and would rather pay you to do it. It is untested, I do not have the equipment like you do. I also have Jag's Hyundai, Toyota and GM for you to inspect or repair. Can you do it? You still around?

    How long did it take you to get it separated from the dash? Also, would you by chance have that video recorded?

    Dear Eedomer, tell me please if it is (254-001) original part number or duplicate? If not, tell me if it is possible to find real original ribbon cable from Siemens or VDO, or Blaupunkt?

  • @coachdale8758
    @coachdale8758 Před 3 lety +2

    So.... it looks like you do not need to heat up the ribbon cable to get the glue to set before attaching the backlight part?

  • @tiarafrancis8159
    @tiarafrancis8159 Před 9 lety

    How can you get the temperature gauge on the far right of cluster to reset? I put another cluster in and all gauges work except for that one going straight to HOT.

    • @spencermaiers8322
      @spencermaiers8322 Před 5 lety

      Usually I see this when the thermostat has failed. You can get it to return to normal by clearing the codes. And then when it happens again fix the issue by replacing the failed part.

    "It looks perfect" It's showing -40c degrees.

    • @AlienMonkeyDXB
      @AlienMonkeyDXB Před 6 lety +11

      -40 is the default output when the outside temp sensor is not connected. Same goes when it fails

    • @yrot1123
      @yrot1123 Před 4 lety

      he can only repaired in 2 min while the temperature @-40C... it may take much longer if temp is higher than +25C..LOLOLOL
