Does anyone have any clues as to why the cluster won't work? I don't have much time to take apart the console to make sure the connection is good but it looks like that is the route I'm gonna have to go.

Did you just installed the cluster? or was it factory installed?.

Sorry I should have given more details. As far as I know it was factory installed . Previous owner was a lady with a little girl (found Barbie shoes under the seats on my first detail). Cluster never worked from day one.

You might want to check the connections, it literally takes like 45 seconds to pop the gauges out, maybe something got disconnected, or it wasn't factory installed and they never installed the adaptor harness.

I think according to the pictures it comes with the Power port and TC button so you don't need to transfer them. Mine is on the Fed-Ex truck now to be delivered. I have already taken the old console out. Oh the FedEx truck just pulled into my driveway. Be back shortly.


Update, Well It popped right in and worked great. I am soooo Happy...
And yes it came with the Traction contro and Power Port already in it so that saved some time.
Total time for install 15 minutes.

Just installed this kit today. Was very easy and works and fits like new. For 15 minutes of time it is well worth it.

Done took 20 minutes. The shifter plate took a little longer but while it was already apart I decided to do both.
