Instruments in Console, Changes

Model(s):
90CS, 90CS Quattro Sport 1993 m.y.

From February 1992 to July 1992, the instruments in the console are a single assembly instead of separate instruments. Vehicles produced after July 1992 no longer have these instruments.

The instruments can be replaced but not with the old separate instruments. Only replace voltmeter together with the circuit board. The procedure for testing the instruments has not changed, See Repair Manual.
