Well, It didn't work
The cluster comes in 2 printed circuit boards, the one on the back is the main board, it holds mileage, etc. the smaller and flimsier one on the front holds the tach, speedo and temp and fuel guages, it is one solid printed circuit board, so not much you can do here, I did, however switch the front PCB from the 04 to the 03, nothing changed, I then switched the 03 to the 04, still nothing changed. I did the same thing with the rear main boards with the same results.
The tach, which isn't working on the 03, but is working on the 04 does have a small motor or something attached to it, it is soldered on in 4 places, I heated up the tach motor from the 04 which was working and soldered it to the 03 PCB, unfortunately nothing has changed. I don't know if the 01 cluster you have will work or not, it may have too many guages. If you think you or one of your friends could fix this one or your 01 will work, I would be happy to pay for the install, cause I gotta pay RUF to send it to California anyway. I am beginning to think maybe the problem is the 04 part, mine may use 01 through 03, not sure, I know mine has the green, blue, and gray connectors on the back, as does the 04, I have an older one that has gray, black and white, it will not work, Let me know if anybody wants to try to fix this, I would love to help, I might learn something. Thanks
