Installing the New Odometer




1. Reinstall the odometer. When placing the odometer back into the frame, the pinion carrier ears must line up to fit in the odometer frame groove provided for them.


2. If the assembly has a trip odometer:


- rotate the trip odometer shaft to align with the slit on the odometer shaft and reinstall the coupler.


- install the metal odometer retainer and screw. Make sure the retainer lips are riding in the grooves provided on the odometer shaft.


3. Install the odometer assembly using the two (or three) screws.

^ Important

Due to ESD precautions, do not touch the circuit board or other components of the instrument cluster.

4. Plug the odometer connector into the circuit board on the instrument cluster assembly.

^ Important

The connector must be installed facing the proper direction. Make sure the index slits on the connector are properly aligned.

5. Install the two plastic light tunnels (if equipped) onto the odometer assembly.

6. Carefully plug the speedometer assembly into the instrument cluster and secure it into place with the four screws.
