You have to replace the entire instrument cluster.
It is inside he instrument cluster. attached to the speedometer.
Depending on the year, but i have a 95 and there are screws going around the outside ov the door panel remove those
If it is anything like the older versions IE 95, 96 neons, you may have cold solders on the back of the instrument cluster where the connections are made. To fix what you do is remove the instrument cluster (pop the cover and unscrew the cluster) put it on a bench face down you will need to unscrew the printed circuit board off of the instrument cluster, and take a soldering iron and heat the solders opposite the connectors until they melt than let them cool and reinstall it back in the vehicle. This should solve your problem it did mine on a 95 & 96 neons. There is a good description of where to solder the board on this page,type it in and see: http://www.neons.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=18
You need to remove instrument cluster. And the whole dash to access heater box. The heater box case has to be slpit in half to access heater core. A very timely and frustrating job. Take to a professional is what I recommend.
Instrument cluster on a 95 F-150 is all electronic. Thus needing power to operate.

the hose that is not connected to the water pump there is a part that is called the goose neck that is covering the thermostat you must remove that first to change the thermostat
GO OUT AND BUY A 95 2.0 MANUAL JETTA. GOING FROM MANUAL TO AUTO IS CHEAP...GOING FROM AUTO TO MANUAL IS EXPENSIVE$$$$$$
Located on the drivers side, under the dash, mounted behind the instrument cluster. Buy a new one and you will know what you are looking for.
You don't have to take out the instrument cluster or steering wheel. If you take off the panel below the steering wheel, you can see up and behind the instrument cluster. The speedo cable is attached to the gauge with a white plastic clip, which can be gently pried off with two flathead screwdrivers. Then you can pull it through the firewall.
you must either purchase the made together socket and bulbs from a authorized speedometer shop, and then take the instrument cluster out to replace the socket with bulb made together. or just pay the speedometer shop to do the job for you. just remove the band around the cluster and cup holder. then use a 7mm socket to remove 4 screws from the cluster and pull it out. turn it over and you can see the backside of the light sockets just twist and pull them out you must replace the whole socket and bulb together because they are made together.
