My check engine light on my 98 F-150 would not come on and I needed to either replace it or find out why it wouldn't come on when I took it to emissions. Every time I took it to the ford dealer it would work until I got home and then it wouldn't come on. The dealer said go to the junk yard and get a cluster it must be a problem with it. Well, you certainly walked me through on how to replace the cluster and after tinkering with the bulb after I got my cluster in position to check the bulb it is now working fine. Thanks for a very good video.

This video saved me some big bucks by telling me how to do the repair and what the problem was. Very simple fix. Thanks!!

Thanks for your valuable time and effort in helping me with this information. My speedometer sometimes work, and other times it just pegs out at the 90mph mark. In addition, my odometer doesn't work and my cold / hot gauge stays at the H mark, but the truck doesn't overheat. It's time for a replacement. Thanks again.

very detailed, thanks for posting. I will be making this repair soon and your video was a huge help

Best detailed video that save me a bunch of time. Well done. Thanks so much.

Thanks for the info My heater gauge and speedometer quit on my 97 4.2. . this is definitely foreign ground for me

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

ALWAYS DO YOUR VIDEOS IN DAY LIGHT!!!!!

this video helped me today just wanted to say thanks and it fixed my odomitor i bought a gauge cluster without the rpm gauge but it still worked and had the same plugs

You had me all the way to the abrupt ending lol

Just a tad different than my '84 f150 I used to have! Needed to replace some dash bulbs on my '98 fq50 and couldn't figure out the shift indicator. On the '84 it's just a snap panel, 4 screws, a speedo cable, 2 connector, unscrew and unhook the indicator cable from the column.

WARNING - great video but prying the headlight switch out with a screwdriver, broke mine up pretty good and it is a mint 1997 with 52k original miles. There is a button on the left side but back in the dash. When you push it in, it’s slides these pins over on a spring type slider and when you let go of the button they slide back. So you can’t pry it out without sliding them over. You’ll see what I mean. Haven’t figured out how you would have gotten in there to push it though so you don’t break it. But if you can figure that out it’s a smooth pop out situation.

Well i can't find our manual book to the 98 f150 to see the horn relay or fuse to the horn. I seen on the dash fuse box its missing the relays of 3 4 5 i already know relay 3 is a empty relay outlet so what does relay 4 and 5 go to

Thanks good video

Thans

thanks for the video helped me out alot

Thanks for the video. My odometer and trip meter arent working. I used a 9/32 socket and that worked

Can never understand why all these videos are shot with one hand and one hand fights with the piece being removed. Go Pro makes a head mount that works well allowing the narrator to use both hands while working.

great video, i needed this.

Thanks for making video

I'm pretty sure you did not need to replace the whole thing, if odometer and trip are not working that's because you need to change the little gears in their mechanism

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

thanks for the video

Nice video

Did you replace you miles or did you just take what was on the new cluster I have low miles unless I could find one that's close I'm screwed my gauges are not working .

So, I am wondering how did you fix the odometer did you replace just the worm gear?

I have a 98 lariat F150 4.6. cluster died, I thought it was just the fuse but when I replaced it, smoke came out of it. my question is, if I go get a good one from the junkyard does it has to be reprogrammed by the dealer?

Hi,,,, I have a 1997 150 that his been sitting idle for a few years. I have rumination on the cluster but no Speedometer, Tach, Water Temp. or Volt reading. Is It the Whole cluster or something else???? Any feed back would be appreciated.

I got a 98 f150 and my odometer also isn't working. I'm assuming you got your new instrument cluster from a junk yard?

I need to swap out my 2003 f150 lariat cluster with one I found on eBay. If I do this will I be able to start my truck? I heard the PATS will not let it happen because it it isn't the one from the factory? Yours seam to work with out any issues. Also, will the mileage reflect my current mileage or that of the new new/used one from eBay? It has similar miles. My tach had an issue which is the reason for swapping it out.

Dont know if I'll get an answer right away. But my cluster gauges all went out on me after getting home from filling up. Tilted my steering wheel and my rpm needle dropped and my fuel gauge oil pressure etc all dropped. Fuses dont look blown. Am I better off getting a new cluster? Also I did replace my lights to blue led so I dont know if that would have caused anything.

I have a '97 Eddie Bauer edition Expedition, about what would it cost to have something like this done by a professional?

what is all this no contour instrument cluster instructions come on people i type in contour it gives me ford f150 and no contour

I have a question for everyone is it possible to replace my speedometer from my 2000 ford f150 with a digital one that you can find on newer models of ford f150 like digital speedometer?

Dude almost broke my light switch, don't use a screwdriver to pop out light switch! There is a black spring loaded lever... pull the lever then remove the light switch

how bout getting someone else to hold the camera

For the headlight switch ect. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/etF2pqxiq7_XeH0.html
