Removal Procedure
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing
any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to
the vehicle or its components.
Important: Before sending out the instrument panel for repair, replacement, or
exchange, note the number and type of the bulb and socket assemblies. Due
to the variety of optional equipment available, replacement clusters
do not always have the correct number or type of indicator lamps. Comparing
bulb locations beforehand will ensure that all indicator lamps remain
functional.
