AWESOME! Thanks so much for making this. I took a trip to the local salvage yard and found a bunch of great upgrade parts- the cluster being one of them. Best to practice on junk JEEPs first... :)
You know what Mr Dalton sir. THank you for your service. I have been looking for more refined step by step in removing the dash, a lot of our fellow XJ "folk"uses words like, yall just need to do some yankin here an pull there, use a big flat and really get it in there... Here is a clear example of why your XJ's interior is in the condition it is, and proof that you have god damn standards and self respect. My XJ is in pristine condition, and your words like "pop" and step by step walk-through of which screw holds what for whatever reason suits me a lot better! I know this is a long messsage but FFS i almost had a stroke going through all those videos and I am NOT in the mood to follow the workshop manual W1-8 page screw here (refer to page 11 million 19p-5-2-33-31-123123-123-). THANK YOU! definitely subscribing to this mothereffer
Very cool.. I have a 1997 Cherokee Sport HD, and my "cruise control" & "4 wheel drive" lights are out, so I'm pretty sure I need to replace the bulbs. This video really made removing the instrument less of a worry. I recently had the AC evaporator core and while the dash was off the heating core replaced as well as fixing the linkage of the defrosters done by a mechanic. $1400.00 which also included PA. State Inspection it didn't take anything , and flush the radiator and put in new coolant. The AC is back to working really good. We were able to see a pin hole in the core because we had added dye the year before. My Jeep only has 85,875 miles on it, 4.0 automatic. I hear these years of Jeeps are pretty much bullet proof. I did do the suspension a few years back running double leafs in the back and Reading Spring, springs in the front, all new bushings, new universals, axle bearings. I think my jeep will last me another 20 years lol. It is one tough SUV. I wanted manual shift but I had to go with automatic trans because Jeep did not make the heavy duty version with manual trans. Mine came factory with an engine and transmission oil coolers, high compression 4.0 in line 6 cyl, and 410 gears. And yeah I have to run high test gas and I get about 15MPG on a good day LOL... Thanks again for your video.. BTW, I like the factory gauge lighting...
did you know there is actually a way to test the bulbs without pulling the cluster? and i love mine i've passed 300,000 miles on it and its still going strong, i recently lifted it 3 inches and swapped in a limited slip diff as well as a rear disk conversion
Very cool Dalton.. Yes to check the cluster bulbs, i hold in the trip button and turn the key to on and it will test the entire cluster, I think you showed that here, I was watching like a hawk, LoL.. Your Jeep sound cool too. I've talked to a lot of people that say they have 300,000 miles and still going strong, 97 thur 2000 were good years for the Cherokee even with the little Jeep things that go wrong. I love my jeep too..
AWESOME!! Thank you very much I was going to put a separate tach gauge in until I saw this. I have ordered the part and will change them out in a couple days when it arrives, hope all goes smoothly for me as well...
Thanks for this EXCELLENT video! Well done sir! Straight, to the point and a confidence builder and removing the instrument panel. Going to do this and change my bulbs!
i was originaly looking how to just remove the center dash where the cd player ect is so i could run a new wire to inside my 97, but u also helped w my future dash removal! thanks!
My instrument cluster didn’t work and the red airbag light was illuminated for the last three days. All the other electrical components in the Jeep worked. I tried holding the trip reset and turned the ignition key to the ON position and the cluster started working. Freaking gremlins!
Dude thanks half my lights are out so now I can fix that and change it to blue. Only thing I find weird is how would you have it show the true miles on the new dash cluster? Or would someone then be able to lie about how many miles a jeep has. I only ask in case I buy another jeep
Several years ago I had to replace heater core and after doing this the cluster would randomly stop working until it stopped working altogether. I cleaned connections and boom she was back, but now the fuel gauge goes from full to empty. Is that part of the cluster trip test mode or did something just crap out on me?
@Luke, the no bus means the dash is having trouble communicating with the computer, try pushing on the cluster first to see if it does anything, if not pull the cluster out and clean the connectors the best you can, if that still dosent work you may need a new cluster or you have a problem with the computer or wiring. as for the stereo it shouldn't affect the cluster in any way to the best of my knowledge
I have to slap the top of my dash to make mine come back active, is the pry just lose connection then, one of those harnesses or the connectors on the cluster itself
YOU DID A GREAT JOB ON THE VIDEO RIGHT TO THE POINT PERFECT I WAS MOVING RIGHT ALONG WITH IT I WISH IT WORKED FOR ME COULD I BE RIGHT MAYBE NOT ENOUGH POWER 97 CHEROKEE SE
the oil pressure needle could be from a few things. cluster may not be plugged in all the way or bad, perhaps the oil pressure sender is bad or clogged with debris. or the cluster may be bad. you can always check the cluster by running the self-diagnostics. i show how to do it on one of these videos. i have no clue as far as the lift gate light being on
Just had to do this for a bulb. Great instructions on how to, but i can’t for the life of me get the rubber around the steering wheel back into place. Any tips?
Nice. It turns out, the "check engine" light has burned out in my 01 XJ Limited. It failed emissions today. Swell. That explains why it hasn't been on the past two years. I'm trying to keep it on the road, but it is a challenge. It threw 4 different codes.
Thank you for the video. I appreciate the details and tips. You are really funny too. Can you please explain or do a video to change to the led lights you spoke of.
@dalton456 hey dalton thanks for this video I bought a cluster around the same miles as my old cluster and ur video made it so easy just did my today thanks dalton
Hi -- I tried the diagnostic for the cluster btw I have jeep cherokee limited 1998 and what happens if the diagnostic worked does that mean the dash cluster is ok -- because my kilometer reading is not working and the gages go off and on and sometimes they don't even work -- do you think it just needs cleaning and not changing -- thank you for your help.
So on my 97 Jeep Cherokee sport the fuel gauge is stuck at half tank, the oil pressure doesn't work, and the trip reset miles don't work...would replacing my dash cluster fix this?? great video thank you for this!
Where do I find those LED Bulbs? I very much appreciated this video. I’m in the middle of fixing a headlight switch mount, and needed to remove the upper dash cover. Thank you.
find some contact cleaner, and use it to clean out the two plugs on the rear, a simple way to test it would be to push on the cluster alittle, other wise you would have to take apart the dashboard
I have trouble shooting sir...i have 1998 grand cherokee laveredo...i see my battery voltage meter is all the way up....and at desame time i see a indicator light that it says check gauges....what do you think is the causes here?
bad regulator/alternator possibly, take a voltmeter and put it on the battery while the engine is running, see what the voltage reads, if its anything more than 14.4-14.8 it is overcharging and will damage the electronics in the vehicle.
you cant swap this dash into the older cherokees, this one will only work from 1997-2001, which dash do you have now, is it the one with the idiot lights?
I've got two or three of them floating around my house actually, but I'm either getting them from Jeeps I'm scrapping or junk yards you can even find them on ebay
Parsons 18 I had to do this to install a new stereo. The center bezel pulls loose from the bottom edge. If the shifter is forward there is no room for the piece to come back. By pulling the shifter back you have plenty of room to work.
@@dalton456 Hi: I changed the switch on the transfer case. Now, the part-time light comes on while I'm moving into 4WD, but then goes off once it's in 4DW. If I push the shifter up a little, in comes back on. Maybe the switch isn't tight enough?
@@HarryHydro your linkage maybe slightly out of adjustment. are you still using the factory one or do you have an after-market one like azzy's design works or something similar?
@@dalton456 No idea. I think it's a direct connection to the transfer case. I need to move the tranny to neutral, move the 4wd shifter, it's stiff, park, let the vehicle move a bit, then it can go into granny low. I don't know if that helps. ;-) I'll search this Azzy design. Tnx
Thomas White that I don't know, I think the harness is the same but you will have to do some more research. Try to look up the cluster swap on the naxja forum. That would be your best bet for accurate information
+chris ehrhart i do not have a video on how to replace one, havent had one go bad and honestly it is just such a pain in the ass to do, in order to replace it you have to take the dash apart. now as far as unclogging it you can use air or water. basically you will remove both heater hoses, then hook up a water hose to the inlet hose. try to flush it through, then swap to the outlet and swap back and forth until the water comes out clear, if you want to use air you would use the same method as the water just with air instead, i wouldnt recommend using more than 20 psi or so though since most cooling systems are only made for about 16 psi of pressure. as far as your issue do you not have heat or is it leaking too?
there is one somewhat last ditch effort, you can try to flush clr through the heater core, there is a possibility that it could eat the heater core or cause it to leak, i would not recommend letting it get into the cooling system either, so if that does unclog it you should flush the hell out of the core
Hi Dalton: Thank you for your reply -- how can I check the connection? Would I have to remove the dashboard? Also, the speed sensor -- is that easy to verify? Can the connection be cleaned with WD40? I hate repeating myself but again, since the diagnostic worked ok does that mean that the cluster is still good...Thank you so much. BTW, your video was very helpful
XJ is the Cherokee model designation within Chrysler. SE is a trim the cherokee came in such as Sport and Limited. SE was base model i believe, but as AyeR0N said the dash gauge clusters are in fact interchangeable between 97,98,99,00,01s
Pablo Caroca Carrera just remove the bulb from the dash cluster. If anyone else drives it or you go to sell it just make sure you let them know that there are no airbags and the bulb is removed
it just has to be a gauge cluster from a 1997-2001 cherokee. the ones for a jeep tj wrangler may be the same but dont quote me on that. there were different clusters, as you can see my jeep was optioned with idiot lights but the higher models like the sport and all came with all gauges. after this video i picked up a police package gauge set which has a 120mph speedo and some bright orange needles
Thomas White you can but from my understanding it's more involved. From what I was reading on the 96 and prior models you have to change the actual sensors on the motor for some of the gauges
The plastic that covers the gauges? Pretty much all you have to do is remove the instrument cluster like I showed and then there are some clear plastic tabs that you have to unclip and then you can remove it
Didn't work for me my oil gauge needle never went up and also the lift gate light stayed on. I think THER is not enough power to work the needle gauges only enough power to run the dummy lights.
Well let me save somebody time and money by telling people DO NOT TRY AND PUSH THE DASH PANEL OVER THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH!!!!!!!!!! You fill fuck up that rod and switch. TRUST ME I DID. If this dude looked at the switch it has a release button that allows that rod to be removed! DO NOT FORCE PANEL OVER ROD!
Finally, someone else that uses "finagling".
Ha, I thumbed up the video for that very reason right after he said it. Info was good, too.
Because of this video I was able to fix the instrument cluster in my xj. Thanks a ton.
AWESOME! Thanks so much for making this. I took a trip to the local salvage yard and found a bunch of great upgrade parts- the cluster being one of them. Best to practice on junk JEEPs first... :)

+Caesar Tiberius should go pretty smooth for you, just be prepared to fight with that dash bezel especially if you dont have a tilt wheel
Great job! The instrument cluster light check at the end was very helpful as well!

Awesome tip on the tester! Thanks!
i was originaly looking how to just remove the center dash where the cd player ect is so i could run a new wire to inside my 97, but u also helped w my future dash removal! thanks!
You stated that the light bulbs for changing the color on the instrument panel is a Type 74? and 5 are required? Thanks and Thanks for your video.

Great video. I can change my now.
I was just wondering if the correct mileage reads on the new gauge cluster….
It does not, note your old mileage. I do not know of any way to actually have the mileage swapped
find some contact cleaner, and use it to clean out the two plugs on the rear, a simple way to test it would be to push on the cluster alittle, other wise you would have to take apart the dashboard

Awesome video! Very in depth. Where did you get your new cluster that you installed?
fuzzywiseman local junkyard/auto recycler. but really anywhere would do, I ordered a police package one online after this one
Wait, so all I need to do is pop in a new instrument cluster to get all the gauges? I love the internet! 😂
Where did you get the bulbs?
you cant swap this dash into the older cherokees, this one will only work from 1997-2001, which dash do you have now, is it the one with the idiot lights?
where did u get your parts im having a hard time finding one with the tack and the dealerships want $1200 for a used one
I've got two or three of them floating around my house actually, but I'm either getting them from Jeeps I'm scrapping or junk yards you can even find them on ebay
Why do you have to pull the shifter all the way back? Is it easier to get the dash off?

good video how much was that cluster is it new or used thx
used and i only paid 40 bucks at a salvage yard, another 10 dollars for the lights
I have a 1998 jeep Cherokee SE, I found a 1998 jeep Cherokee XJ dash cluster for sale online. Would the XJ dash work with my SE dash?
97-01 cherokee clusters are plug -n-play. So yes a 98 would fit right in your 98 regardless of model. Any of the 97-01 clusters will.
XJ is the Cherokee model designation within Chrysler. SE is a trim the cherokee came in such as Sport and Limited. SE was base model i believe, but as AyeR0N said the dash gauge clusters are in fact interchangeable between 97,98,99,00,01s

@@dalton456 Thanks you! And don't worry, I'm from Chile and my car will be forever to my side
hey question! well detect your miles that were already on it? like swap over??? THANKs
nvm watched the whole video... that stinks it dont..
yeah, oddly enough that's how most vehicles are nowadays, makes it easy for people to be dishonest
hmmm never thought bout that !
i would check to see if it has a loose connection, or prehaps check the speed sensor on the transmission
do you have to disconnect battery to do this or doesn't matter??
i dont find that it does in this situation. no exposed wires and as long as they key is off there isnt any signal going to it
nice video thanks, you have intake in your jeep?
+Leonel Plascencia yes i have the spectre one, probobly gonna swap it out for the thor one though
Why does yours only have a Speedo and fuel Gauge🤔
What is the new gauge from. Like what make and model of Jeep?
it just has to be a gauge cluster from a 1997-2001 cherokee. the ones for a jeep tj wrangler may be the same but dont quote me on that. there were different clusters, as you can see my jeep was optioned with idiot lights but the higher models like the sport and all came with all gauges. after this video i picked up a police package gauge set which has a 120mph speedo and some bright orange needles
dalton456 cool l really like how they one looks
How do you get your mileage back to the right number??
Daniel Thomas i dont think its possible without special software, or bringing it to the dealer
is this the same on Grand cherokee or only cherokee classic ?
1997-2001 cherokee only, cant speak from experience on the grand cherokees because i've never touched one
1996 Jeep Cherokee can you can you swap from light panel to gauge panel
Thomas White you can but from my understanding it's more involved. From what I was reading on the 96 and prior models you have to change the actual sensors on the motor for some of the gauges
Do you know if you can swap the wj ac control dashboard to the xj?
+swimers100 wont work, different systems
Can you take the glass out easily?
The plastic that covers the gauges? Pretty much all you have to do is remove the instrument cluster like I showed and then there are some clear plastic tabs that you have to unclip and then you can remove it
Thanks
I’m pulling out line and putting the vinyl gauge overlays on
Two-wheel-drive?
kewrock for now, in process of converting to 4 x4
@dalton456 if I buy the same gauge cluster as yours do I have to program it i have the same idiot cluster now on my 2000 jeep cherokee
as long as you dont mind the mileage being different you dont have to reprogram anything
you cant put old miles on it?
... :(
Now which bulb on the new cluster is for the CEL light so I can rip it out and can stop having to stare at it for a damn battery temp sensor code!
Didn't work for me my oil gauge needle never went up and also the lift gate light stayed on. I think THER is not enough power to work the needle gauges only enough power to run the dummy lights.
what year is your jeep
The Beige Wonder 2000
Thanks
Almost the CD player in my 2001 lol
Well let me save somebody time and money by telling people DO NOT TRY AND PUSH THE DASH PANEL OVER THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH!!!!!!!!!! You fill fuck up that rod and switch. TRUST ME I DID. If this dude looked at the switch it has a release button that allows that rod to be removed! DO NOT FORCE PANEL OVER ROD!
Do you know if a gauge cluster from an early tj will work?
I was so bummed when I found out the mileage is stored in the cluster.
THANKS
Can’t for the lift of me get the dash piece back on! That rubber piece is killing me.
which rubber piece?
@@dalton456 the boot/dust protector thing that encircles the wheel column. After a whole lot of finaglin’ we’re in business
Yeah there's not really any trick for that one, just keep playing with it and it kind of goes into place LOL
thanks guys, as for the bulbs i bought mine at VLEDS.COM, just use the bulb look up to find the right bulb number
very interesting but yes would have liked to see panel come off.
lol im pulling out my airbag light
lol i just did that, i needed an emission check and my check engine light was burnt out so they wouldnt do it, airbag light worked like a charm
