Leds are polarity sensitive so before you reinstall your cluster all the way check & see if they're all lit up. if not just pull out the bulb & reinstall it the opposite way. also don't forget to slam a beer once you're done

tilt the wheel down, pull off bottom plastic around steering wheel, unscrew instrument bezel. no need to take the whole dash apart.. you lost me when you took off the stereo bezel

I have never been so excited about changing out the bulbs on my 97 expedition. Thank you for this video

LED BULBS ARE POLARITY SENSITIVE. IF THEY DONT WORK, PULL OUT, ROTATE 180 DEG. RE-INSERT. THEY ARE NOT MARKED POS. OR NEG.

To follow up on my question from earlier, the circuit board film has a greenish tint to it. That results in the green panel tint from standard factory/incandescent bulbs. Just wanted to post this in case anyone else has that same question. Thanks again for the teardown/how-to!

Awesome video! I bought a used 1998 Expedition and none of the cluster bulbs are working and I didn't want to try and figure out how to disassemble the dash on my own. Your video is very clear and concise and has great pointers. Thank you!

Going to try this once I watch it 4 more times lol 😂

Watched the video 1 time ND took everything apart successfully. I felt like a genius after seeing wat I did😂😂😂 thanks for the video💯💯

Ahhhh....this ahhhh....that...ahhhh.....there..aahhhhh...ahhhh.....ahhhh lol 😂

I removed many fewer screws than suggested. I did not remove what was referred to as "that plastic thing." A total of 7 screws for the piece above the display and 4 screws for the display. WARNING: My 1997 F-150 headlight switch panel should not be pulled out all at once. First remove the cover. Then there is a black slide to remove the box that contains the connections. I replaced all 5 194 bulbs (2 were burned out) and 19 of the smaller T5 bulbs, all of which appeared good. My original bulbs lasted 27 years. If the replacements last that long they will outlive me.

LEDs mode that I have done have the potential to be lit in only one direction so be careful of this.. it is not just a plug and play. So if some of the bulbs do not lite up. Dont worry to much. Just reverse them. Take them out and turn them 180 degrees and the lite should now work

I had to remove my cluster on my 99 F150. I didn't have to remove everything that you removed on it. It actually didn't take me that long.

Thank you for the video! I'm glad I could hear you talk over that annoying background music.

The background music is annoying.

Worked well on my 07 escape only thing is i do not have the bright blue light with factory green tint but bulbs worked well and gave me a teal color ...also changed my blinkers and those were bright...thank you for suggesting those bulbs

did you just replace the bigger bulbs i believe you said you had 6 of them just replace the big ones right

Did you replace the smaller light bulbs (beige color sockets) and if so what is the part number for those?

Thanks for video! I have a '98 with 228K on it and decided it's time to change dash lights. It's running great and puts not a drop of oil on the floor, go figure. I will go with red, 20 years as a firefighter puts red in your system. Again thank you for the video. Hoseman

The gift thay keeps giving Thanks alot

Im 15 just tryna learn the things for my 1997 ford f-150 short bed i got the lights i see vids i just wanna know a better way which this is the easiest appreciate it dawg💯

1, 2, 3, 4, clap your hands 🤠

I have a 2000 Ford F-150. I am replacing the instrument cluster lights with blue T-5 LED bulbs. The T-5 LED bulbs are polarity. When I install a LED bulb in the high beam indicator, I only get the LED to light up when I pull back on the left side turn-signal stalk or lever. When I push the stalk forward toward the dash so that the high beams are on all of the time and also for the high beam indicator light bulb to stay on all the time, I get no LED light at all. When I reverse the LED bulb polarity, I get no high beam indicator light at all in either direction. Does your T-5 LED bulb for your high beam indicator light up in both directions, forward for full time high beam or reverse (towards you) just to flash oncoming cars to warn them of a cop up ahead or whatever? I'm thinking I may have to use an LED bulb that is non-polarity, works in both directions like the factory original bulbs. But I do not see for sell on Amazon or EBay to where you can buy only one LED T-5 bulb that is non-polarity. Let me know on your truck if your high beam indicator light works in both directions (forward and aft or reverse). Thank You!!

I have bulbs that light up when putting them in but the light doesn't come through to light anything up any known cause for this??

Great video thank you. I’ll try it on my 2000. Btw, the music is too repetitive and annoying, sorry.

Hello, with which light should I replace the indicator light bulb? heist? it's broken

Great looking. Does your truck have dimmer control? Do these lights dim down when you turn down dimming on the truck?

I replaced all the bulbs in a 1997 F150, but now none of the gauges are working. Does the cluster have to be reset somehow?

Really helpful video, thank you sir.

Background is very distracting and gets annoying quickly

I replaced the 5 big bulbs and on the speedometer 50-70 is not working. Why? Do I need to replace any small ones???

Videos pretty informative but the music is distracting shouldn't be any music

The music is very distracting

Did this mod and nothing! Be careful because not all vehicles are upgradeable. I have a 2002 F150 and there is a green panel inside the cluster ( factory stock ), which prevents the led s from shining through, so we had to take everything apart again and return it to stock configuration.

Waiting for post cluster light replacement dash rattle in 3....2....

'02 256 V6 2wd. I want to make my truck cool for when I sell it. Thanks for helping me possibly do that

Were the turn signals the smaller bulbs? Do you have a count of how many bulbs needed for the project? Thanks for the video!

Large bulbs are T10 194's. Small bulbs are T5....and what number? Thanks!

Black Mickey, you made this video almost two years ago, so I was wondering if the LED's are all still working? After having them for a couple of years now, are you still satisfied with the way they look in your dash?

Thanks for the vid! I will be replacing the bulbs in my 1998 F-150 using this how to for sure!

Do you happen to know the size/specs of the smaller (not 194) bulbs? After replacing all 4 194s, I still have a dark spot around the 50, 60, 70mph area.

Alright so i have a question. I saw that you only replaced the larger bulbs with the black caps which are the 194 led bulbs correct? if i wanted to replace all the other bulbs what size are they? and those are the ones that control blinkers, door ajar, fuel, check engine lights, etc. correct?

any other color may look odd. the opaque film is tinted itself. so red may not be a real red color. green would be nice cause its already green.

Were some of your gauges dimmer than the others?

How amny bulbs does it take to re place them all? The T5 leds are grow lights aren't they? Thanks for the video n God Bless!!

Looks awesome !

Great Video, plan on doing mine this week!!

Don't forget about the green tint the gauges have you need to clean that off in order for the color bulbs to shine thru all the numbers

Awesome. Thanks for the video brother

hey i replace my T194 but looks like i have to replace the small ones... what size are the smallers ones t5?

Micey what size bulbs were there in your instrument gauge? what numbers so I can cross reference to the LED replacements?

What size bulb are the small bulbs are they T194 also

How do you order small and the big ones?

Wish my 03 f150 was so easy lol looks good man

“Run” is the position before start, and those are incandescent bulbs, not halogens!!!

Music is distracting

Thank you for the video I also have a 1997 F-150. It is the V6. I am still unclear how many lights I need to purchase to swap out the lights behind the instrument panel. You mentioned that you purchased some small bulbs and some large bulbs but how many of each variety? I am presuming five large ones for the black housings. How many small bulbs. Folks mentioned that you missed a light for your fuel indicator. Was that an additional bulb you failed to order or was it simply in backward? Thanks.

Do u know if its the same size LEDs for the 2008 f150

I have A 95 f one 50 do you know what bulbs size I would need ?

Are u going to replace the fokitos or the heater core??

the panel over the steering wheel comes off how? Why do you not show this?

Looks good but there are other lights on the truck that are factory color... well at least there is on mine. The power window switches, cruise control switches, temperature control switches, ect ect. I've got to replace all five on my instrument cluster panel too, do they offer factory white colored Led's? I like Led's they last a long time and i only wanna do this job one time.

la verdad hicieron una tranformacion increible en la camioneta ,, tal vez algun dia pudiera hacer lo mismo en mi camioneta . felicidades ala persona que hizo tan increible trabajo ..

Also need to be careful with what lights you use. All those cheap led ones from china you find on ebay will burn out pretty quick and leave a rust residue behind.

Nice vid man, definitely going to try this on my ‘03 f150 soon!

Thanks, nice job.

the fucking music dude seriously

What size were there small LEDs buddy? I did that with my expedition but didn't know the size of the small leds

Nice video, but you have 1 led not working at the fuel guage, you just need to turn it 180° degrees and put it back, then it should work.

I just installed blue LED'S on my 98 f150 dashboard and they didn't light up. :( don't know what the problem is

Do I have to unplug the negative side of my trucks battery before dismantling into the cluster? People say you need to so you don't get electrocuted or something. Did you do that or did you simply turn the truck off?

Great video bro! I am going with the blue! Nice upgrade

You forgot to say what size the small bulbs are.

What are those lights called ? I want to order them on eBay help me out

I want to do this to my 99 f150 but how do I remove that green tint they have now. I really want that nice blue glow like my stereo.

What size are the little and big leds

Looks good

This is an awesome video. Thank you for the details!

Hey man that looks killer.! I'm gonna do mine... I have a 99 F150 4.6 5 Speed and will these same LED's work in mine as well.?

Nice a lot of work though

I got a 97 f150 ex cab short bed.my fog lights wont work when i pull em. Ive checked the bulbs they seem to b ok anyone know y or have had same. Problems let me know

great video. blue looks good, I think I'll be doing this soon

How long did it take you start to finish?

The instrument cluster lights went out on my 2007 F 150 last night. Trouble shooting steps?

Where a can get thise lights

OK, I replaced mine and now on the left side of the mph gage isn't getting light to the numbers.

Bro how did they preform no flashing or such after 1 year

Does this work on 97 expedition ?

link don’t work

My blue lights are orange and not blue

I did changed it to blue lights but still green uhuh how that? Have to remove the paper of the green or what?

So did u only change the t10 bulbs

Great video but I was ready poke my ears with an ice pick

how did you get steering wheel cover off ?

Loved this idea, great look, and cheaper than buying new gauges.. awsome walk thru by the way followed step by step an had no issues at all, unfortunately for some odd reason when I installed mine seems like only a few of the new lights worked both w/ the big an small replacement LED bulbs.. I've got seedometer but not tackometer, have the fuel an volts meter but not the temp or oil pressure, and of course the left turn signal works but not the right, plus a few other small indicators... Any idea why this is happening???? Pls help!! Lol

You skip over the part where you pry out the impossible to pry panel

can you still dim them ? and i think i would have used different color for the warning lights

what size bulbs were they?

Nice video! If I do the replacement using standard white halogen lamps (size 194), will I still see the factory green tint? I actually want to keep the factory tint intact so everything is uniformly lit/colored. Thanks!

Did you have to take off that green tint behind the gauges within the cluster?

thank you sir
