Swapping Out Gauge Pack - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

ROCKLAND TOYOTA · 06-22-2009, 09:56 AM

over the weekend we swapped a sedan cluster out for one with lesser mileage.(42k to 13k). swap was simple plug n play and new cluster worked like it was brand new. NO need to re-program or worry about old mileage staying with new cluster.

Wait a minute... I am so confused.

1. Rockland - I thought everyone said that sedan clusters don't fit liftbacks.

2. Gideon - you swapped out the clusters and you're saying that not only are they completely plug and play - but your mileage remained intact??

Anyone want a digital dash

kustom play · 06-23-2009, 04:01 AM

i just bought an 08S cluster with tach

i will report back my findings!

Sodium Duck · 06-23-2009, 12:36 PM

Looking forward to it Kustom...

Umm, yea sure I want one 1nz!

kustom play · 06-23-2009, 02:02 PM

i'll be surprised it if all worked with no mods (tach and all)

but my thinking is that other markets had them, so maybe the wiring is the same?

i dont know, we'll find out next week i guess

How much did you end up paying for the cluster, if I may ask.

kustom play · 06-23-2009, 03:35 PM

it was 60 something with shipping

i want to say like 63 bucks?

it said the cluster had 4K miles on it

Sodium Duck · 06-23-2009, 04:43 PM

Wow, super cheap! Where'd you score that?

kustom play · 06-23-2009, 06:48 PM

Yup. I'm glad the wrecking place let me try the cluster on. (they didn't actually know if the clock was broken though, so we were testing lol)

Another member has successfully swapped clusters. drifto actually has a Vitz cluster I think that he swapped into his with no troubles. He's got a pic in his garage.

HTM Yaris · 06-23-2009, 11:46 PM

Wonder if these will work on 07 LB ?

Edit: Please post before and after pics showing mileage . Thanks

kustom play · 06-24-2009, 03:30 AM

when i get it i'll post up some pics

i really hope the tach works

sedan to sedan with lesser miles and my comment was refering to the milaeage question....

rockland,

do you know if the tach will work on my 07 that never had tach?

im wondering if its like my MR2 thats prewired for everything even if you didnt opt to get ever package is still wired and waiting....

CTScott · 06-24-2009, 05:45 PM

The combo meter gets its tach input on the 24 pin connector at pin 16 (light blue wire). As long as that wire is present, the tach should work.
