Instrument cluster removal....I have a 94 Honda Accord LX and i had a friend cut the glass of my instrument panel to fix the rpm needle because it fell....i was wondering if anybody knew a way to cut all of the glass completely out? My friend wouldve done it but the blades went dull on his cutter and he didn't have anymore....i wouldnt mind taking the dash apart but their are all kinds of dowel pins....anybody know of a quicker way and what tool i can use to just cut the whole glass panel out? Thanks in advance

dealer might be able to fix with the computer diagnostic tool. If there is a push button to reset odometer you can take a small wire and try and feed through the hole and raise needle above the pin. removing the instrument cluster cover is a pretty big task, if you cant find a place to insert a wire, only bypass I can suggest is drilling a tiny hole in the instrument cluster cover off to the side or top wherever the hole is least bothersome to you and then use a wire to raise above pin, after put a little clear silicone or a piece of tape over the hole to prevent dust building up inside the cluster

Here's a YouTube video. Says it covers 94-97 instrument cluster removal. There are others also.

yes, the radio has to come out, as 2 of the trim panel screws are hidden by the radio.

4. Remove the ashtray and ashtray holder.
5. Remove the radio/tape player.

1. Remove the coin box, switches and dash light controller from the instrument panel.

1. Lay a protective piece of cloth over the steering wheel pad.
2. Remove the four screws holding the instrument cluster. Pull the cluster forward enough to allow access to the wiring connectors.

1. Disconnect the wiring harnesses and remove the instrument cluster.
2. Individual instruments may be removed from the cluster after it is removed from the car. Avoid damage to any terminals or the printed circuit board.

To install:

1. Install the gauge cluster; connect the wiring before it is fully in place. Install the retaining screws.
2. Install the instrument panel. Make sure it is correctly placed. Install the retaining screws.
3. If applicable, install the air vents.

Reverse procedure to install.

try checking fuses under dash and hood if good prob. ground wire

Same as 2 dr, or a stick.
There are bezel screws that hold the plastic trim (pointing up towards the windshield), you nee to remove these 2 screws. The bottom section is clipped in. Tilt the steering wheel down as far as it will go.
Once you have the bezel off, there are 4 screws holding the cluster to the dash. Remove them and gently pull the cluster forward. Reach around (expect to get scraped knuckles) and unclip the speedo cable, and two large multipin connectors. Don't force anything.
Getting the cluster out after this point is a test of your patience. It only seems to come out one particular way.

If all the connection and power supplies to instrument cluster are ok,I suspect that the speedometer or instrument cluster is faulty but before you replace it, make sure the gear inside the transmission that drives the VSS is in good.

I had a similar problem a few months ago. I changed the speedometer sensor as well as the instrument cluster with no result. Finally I decided to take out my ECU. As soon as I took it apart, I noticed a burnt node. Replaced the ECU and the speedo worked fine. You might try this if tinkering with your cluster doesn't work.

Hi....
The fuel Pump relay (main relay)
On your Honda Accord is located:
Left side of the dash, near left side of the steering column.
On direction under the Instrument cluster.
You will need to remove the Cruise control Module if your car is equipaded with cruise control.
The cruise control module is atached fro 2 screw 10mm.
One on the steering column the other one at the Instrument bracket.
After you remove the cruise computer, you will see the relay.
Is a little bigger that a regular relay colour gray.
And the number on the relay is : RZ0088.

I hope this help on your question.
Thank you for use fixya....

I'm guessing that you have resistance in the wire from the gauge to the instrument cluster or that the grounding is bad somewhere. Still have a problem? Leave it alone because you know what is 'right' or insert a resistor in the line to recalibrate it.
