hey i just got a cluster from a 97 z24 mechanical odometer can i put the rollers from my old 98 clusters odometer into the "new" one i thought i read this somewhere but i cant find it now
yeah. when i swapped a z24 cluster into my 97, i swapped the milage tumblers. you should have no problems
how easy is this instructions if you remember would be helpful i know these things break if you even look at them funny
just installed and realized the odometer is crooked argh! oh well i will fix it when i do whit face gauges
Could you swap the odo on the digitals? I asked the dealer about reprograming and they "don't think they can do it". Who does the programing?
Don:
if its a 2000+ it should be plug and play...no swapping needed
Yeah that would be nice, unfortunatly its a 99. Im swapping 99 to 99 so Id think you could swap the digital odo, but I have been wrong in the past.
Anyone have any experience with the digital odo?
I have the same problem as Don - my '99 cluster is acting all strange and sometimes when I start the car the gear lights will all flash and the needles jump up and down. So I swapped in a new cluster from the junkyard and of course it showed the old car's mileage before the passlock cut the engine. I took the assembly apart and there seems to be a small PCB that drives the odometer screen which then plugs into the main cluster board. There is a small microchip on the mini-board that might hold the mileage because it seems to be permanently glued into the cluster housing. When I get the chance on Tuesday I'll see if I can swap the mini-boards and see if that changes the reading and let you know. While I have it out I may as well solder in some LED's and make all the 00+ guys jealous with their weird needles that don't come off...
