Title: How to: Remove Speedometer cable from instrument cluster.
Post by: Shane198three on July 26, 2010, 02:08:56 AM
How would I go about removing my speedometer cable from the back of my instrument cluster? Just pull? Video anywhere?

remove  the screws on the cluster and pull the radio bezel. reach in from an open radio hole. on the cable right at the speedo is a plastic clip that has to be squeezed to release it.    push the cable towards the speedo, squeeze clip and pull back to remove.   takes a little tinkering the first time.

Got it removed, great fun... Squeeze it hard by hand, some pliers will work, but be careful not to break the plastic piece..

Maybe if I did that with mine years ago the cable would't keep coming unhooked lol
