On my 2003 Toyota Tundra work truck, my dash speedometer light went out. I check fuses and they were all good, so I decided to take the instrument cluster out and check it. So I searched videos to make sure there weren’t any tricks I needed to know to get it out. I found this video and was surprised after watching it that the lights were actually replaceable! I just assumed they were soldered in and I would have to go buy a whole new cluster (I’ve never taken a cluster out, so I didn’t know what to expect). This video showed me exactly how to remove the panel and how to remove the bulbs. Off to the local auto store and back in 5 minutes with 2 new bulbs. I pulled the old ones out (reminded me of and old flash bulb for an old Polaroid camera), plugged the new ones into their holders, twisted them back in, reinserted the instrument cluster and tested them out! That did the trick!!!! Thanks so much for the great video!!!
Easy to follow. Thank you for the video. Thought it was going to be a lot more complicated than it was. I thought I was going to have to pretty much take apart the whole underside of that as opposed to pulling it forward.
Did anyone tell you you shouldn't touch the bulbs with your fingers? The oil off your fingers shortens the life of the bulbs? Part of my dash lights are all out. I'm checking all fuses with a test light to make sure the fuse is not blown. Then after doing so and it is the bulb , bulbs . Replacing them. Oh one trick I wanted to share . A magnet, from a old speaker or a tool magnet bar . A big speaker magnet? I take my screw drivers and place the tip of the screw drivers. Makes those hard to get screws out. By using a magnet over night or a tool bar magnet is awesome. Loved your video. For showing how to pop the cluster pannel off.
@@theotherguy3083 Believe what you like . Its something I learned. The bulbs to admit heat. With that said, a pr of rubber gloves are much easier to put on and handle bulbs. Heck the rubber gloves also help grip them tiny bulbs.
ATTENTION: The T4.2 neo wedge bulbs for my 2003 and 2004 Toyota Tundra Limited trucks for the PRND21 and overdrive. If bulb doesn't light up turn 180° and reinstall.
Thanks for the video! I have a 2003, with the drive, oil, temp, and bottom half of the tach lights out. besides the drive light (which in all honestly has been out for about 12 -15 years) all the others in rhe last 6 months I guess. Seems odd, but everything has a shelf life..what are the chances they make a LED replacement bulb that would just plug in and work..? Thinking I should just change out all of them. Anyways. Thx dude
Changed out 4 T10 bulbs on my 03 ac and now my seatbelt warning light and the 4Hi light on the dash isn’t working after I hooked everything up. Both lights works just fine before I took it apart. Any idea what could’ve happened before I replace those 2 bulbs? Looks good when I did this.
Gear selector bulbs are Neo 4.2 or 4mm bulbs., dash backlight has 4 T-10 bulbs and one T-5 near the 70 to 90 mph area of the speedometer. Warning lights on dash are mostly T-5 bulbs. Dont make the gas tank empty warning light an LED, that circuit uses variable voltage and an LED will light up all the time. Use incandescent bulb for the gas warning light. Hope this helps.
Kind sir: My OD light is out on my 2001 Tundra. Do I assume the procedure for replacing it is the same? I can't quite pick it out in your video, but I'm assuming it's there somewhere. Thanks!
How much did you pay for the bulb? When you ho the junkyard, typically how much do they charge for the parts? Looking to rebuild the front end of a 2004 Tundra. OEM prices are ridiculous.
The Other Guy I thought so, my wife is too and the way you talk remind me of all my brother in laws haha. Love the videos. We're in TN, If you and your family ever close by come visit.
You did not turn the key off.. very bad idea.. sharp screwdrivers slipping around, unplugging and plugging hot circuits. That Two Meter Mike would make me think you know better.

Thank you so much for your video you explained it on point! 5 Gold Stars!! Thanks Again
Bro, the drive light for my 2001 tundra has been out for like 10 years. Thank you.
My D has been out for 10 years also....but not for much longer! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Now I gotta go and replace the lamp for the D on my 04 Tundra.
Do you know what the part number for the bulbs is? Great how to on showing all the steps!
Looks easy after seeing this so thanks for giving me confidence. 👊🏼😎

These are low energy light bulbs. They are incandescent. Now if they were headlights, then you shouldn't touch them.

@@chiptaylor2613 I don't like to wear gloves. I prefer to use what God gave me. Lol

Awesome, I'll wear gloves and you just keep buying bulbs. Lol
Very easy to follow video. Thanks for doing it.

Are the warning lights just as easy to replace - all are out. Could that be a signal for something worse at play? Thanks.
Yessir for 2000 to 2002 models. Not sure about 2003 and onward.
Hi! The multi information display panel seem a little dimmer. Is there a bulb replacement for this? We have a 2003 Sequoia.

Could be that the bulbs died. Either that or when you plug in your wiring harnesses, you didn't plug them in correctly.
Awesome video I just stick the magnet on the screwdriver and leave it there...
What are the specs of the bulb? What exactly should I ask for? Thanks for the video

Yessir
O/D light is a Neo 4.2 or 4mm bulb you can replace.
how can i find out the part numbers to these light bulbs ?
Do you know what do you do if your speedometer dont work along with turning signals
my temperature and oil panel backlight went out as well as my park light. Im assuming changing that bulb out is just the same as in the video?
On early tundra models, yes. Newer models, no.
How much did you pay for the bulb? When you ho the junkyard, typically how much do they charge for the parts? Looking to rebuild the front end of a 2004 Tundra. OEM prices are ridiculous.
I don't know how much they cost. I was waiting for them to charge me. They didn't
If you get a chance, does the instrument indicator panel in 2005 Tundra fit a 2004 Tundra?
I am not sure about compatibility
Hi Uncle. Not everyday you UA-cam it and it’s your uncle..
@@v101969 who is this? Lol
How many bulbs total and are they the same size?
They are 8 bulbs total, same sizes, but different colors
@@theotherguy3083 Thank you
What year is your Tundra?
2000
