How to Repair an Instrument Cluster LED


1. Open the hood of your vehicle and locate the battery. Disconnect the positive and negative cables from the battery, removing the clamp bolts on each terminal with a wrench.
2. Enter the driver's side of your vehicle and move the steering wheel to its lowest possible position within the steering column.
3. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the two screws that hold the rubber bezel in place around the instrument panel. Pull the bezel away from the dash and place in a safe area for reattachment later.
4. Unscrew the three mounting bolts which hold the instrument panel in the dash. Slide the panel part of the way out of the dash. Reach around behind the instrument panel and disconnect the electrical connector attached to the rear. Fully remove the panel and place it on a safe work area.
5. Unscrew the damaged LED bulbs in a counterclockwise direction until they come free from the instrument panel. Insert the new bulbs and turn them in the opposite direction until they become fixed in place. Reattach the instrument panel following the removal steps in reverse. Reattach the battery cables and turn on the engine to check that all the LED bulbs on the instrument panel now work correctly.
