Instrument Cluster Cleaning
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

The hardest parts of cleaning the instrument cluster might be getting the dash bezel off without damage, the shift indicator cable unhooked, and the 2 connectors unplugged.



Once the cluster is out, it's very easy to disassemble, rinse, wash, dry, & reassemble. The case screws are 5.5mm (7/32") hex with T15. While it's apart, the gauge faces should be glued back down with E6000 (it only takes a couple of tiny spots, but the alignment is critical so use the notches top & bottom) so they don't slide around & interfere with the needles. The PSOM's & tachometer's limit pegs hold those faces in-position, but they should still be re-glued.

It's also a good opportunity to make the oil gauge work, add a low-fuel light, or switch to a tachometer cluster.
