sup fellas!


my first time of pulling out a dash board from a 240 and i never thought it can be a pain in the a$$. pulling dash board from hondas is piece a cake. but this is different.

for those who experiences can give me some advices....

i have this problem...this piece that cover the gauge cluster...i gotten loose and the dash board. i just can't take it out. i have this trigger that adjust the steering wheel up and down that is in the way....seem to be there is a bolt that holding the trigger and am i suppose to loosen that too???

maybe there is a easy way or i'm just doing all wrong. help me out fellas!!! i need this thing out because i'm swapping a 93 240 dohc gauge cluster today....ASAP!!!!

 

Helllllllp!!!!

 

drop the steering columun, 2 12mm bolts i think

 

its the truth! you will find its easy after doing this

 

^Its four bolts.

Under the steering wheel there is a panel with, i think ,six screws then four for the steering colum,two in the gauge cluster cover and three in the cluster. two on the side and one up top.

 

no it's two for the steering columun

and here's the rest

 

Alright...I got it out...the cover is out, the cluster is out...and plug in 93 dohc cluster...one problem...my rpm and speedometer not working...my engine light is on, and my gas light is on...even though my gas meter tells me i have gas ( alot) signal light not working, time is not working, shoooot this cluster must be a bad one.....my previous one it work, and only the rpm and speedometer not work...i don't know

 

check to see if the cluster is single cam or dual cam... single cam will read something like 115 MPH the cluster needs to match up with what ever car it is going in. if I remeber right if your running SR you HAVE to use the dual cam one. maybe thats the problem... just my 2 cents..lol
Just me

also I do believe it is 4 bolts under steering wheel. two near the front and two near the base where the thing comes into the car.

 

No, It's 4 for the column. The other 2 are on a bracket that bends with enough force, and it's closer to the firewall. Yeah, if you force the column down with only the front bolts off, it'll go down. But, there are 4 bolts total and all of them need to come off to lower the column completely.

 

alright i went back to check out my cluster...

the previous one cluster it was reading 115 mph
the one that i purchase is the same one, but is reading 110 mph

what's going on here? is 110mph is a twin cam cluster year 91-93 dohc 240?
correct me if I'm wrong...i'm confuse now.
