Nevermind. I found the solution through another question.
Pull shift lever handle straight up and off the lever. Use small screw driver to wedge out lever bezel, pull out bulb, remove bezel. You see there are 2 screws below you have to remove. Use small screw driver to wedge out 4wd handle bezel, pull out bulb, remove bezel. remove 2 screws at the bottom of the storage bin. You may have to pull 4wd shift all the way backwards. Console should then come out.
Open the dashboard underneath the steering column. If you you see a yellow plug that's not connected to anything you should be able to fit the 1600 instrument cluster without modification and it will work.
No, you cannot replace a faulty Ford Sport Trac cluster with a cluster from the 2005 Explorer.
check fuse 3 and fuse 13 . not making good contact.
The connection in the back of the dash cluster has either come lose or has some corrosion on it. Pull the cluster out and clean the connection and put it back together.AnswerIts simple!!!There is a faulty connection between the gauges panel an a module ( The MIC 4).Remove the panel, clan the electric contacts on the back of the gauges panel and everything will work again.I have done it two times...
No. A "no bus" displayed and losing all the gauges generally means you have lost a connection to the back of the instrument cluster. Check for loose or corroded connections in the back of the cluster.
You don't change the bulb yourself unless you want to got to jail. Instead, use the old IPC as an exchange to get a new one. Your GM dealer can help you find a licensed IPC repair facility.
No playing an instrument is not considered a sport.
Not too hard. Remove radio panel first, then gage cluster.
open your hood. take off your right side headlight bezel. remove headlight and park/turn signal light. your radiator pepcock will be in plain sight. remove your radiator cap and open your radiator pepcock to drain.
this is how i gained access to mine. remove your right front headlight/bezel. remove your headlight and park/turn signal lamp. you should see it to your lower right. be carefull. they are plastic and sometimes they stick. don't brake it off.
It means sport edition. It is one model level up from an XE. includes running boards, white sport instrument cluster, sunroof, nicer mag wheels, roof racks, rear wind deflector, fog lights etc etc.
