I finally figured where the blasted noise maker was for the headlights, seatbelts and all that good stuff. Turns out its INSIDE the gauge cluster. I removed it all and found the annoying noise maker and took it off the circuit board. What a relief, no more dinging!! This was on my 06 Ranger. The rest of this video is definetly helpful. If I was him though, I would have eliminated the dinger. On mine though, I was having issues with the door open alarm. I went and bypassed all the door switches and it STILL dinged. Drove me nuts. Not anymore!!
Thanks for the vid. And Thanks a bleeping lot to the Ford Motor Company for the totally unnecessarily jacked-up design (and I've got an Explorer that's that way, too)
This video is on an '01 Ranger. The 1993 has a speedometer cable. This '01 does not. It appears from the ease of the cluster removal after the screws are removed, that this particular truck does not have a speedometer cable connected to the cluster. That, my friend, is a pig of a job. there is very little space, very little give in moving the cluster to allow getting into the back to pinch the little white connectors to release the cable. Some have taken to disconnecting the cable under the truck allowing a little more slack to let the cluster move away from the dash. I have yet to find a video on easily disconnecting the cable on the '93 and earlier. Any volunteers?

Hi guys how are you? Ok here. Anyways I broke the shift indicator cable on my '07 Ranger, do you have a video showing replacement? I see here on the gauge cluster removal & installation helpful, but not showing anything else. Also I'm understanding that the cable assembly comes as a whole unit from indicator gauge to the cable loop /snare to shift lever. Any help would b appreciated .. Thanks, Rob
I have a 1996 Ford Ranger and the instrument cluster plane works excep the temp gauge do I have to replace the whole cluster. The gauge sensor and sending unit has been changed except the eng light still is on. Mechanic said everything is working properly.
The dash on a 1993 Ranger is completely different than this one. I'm having trouble getting the instrument cluster out of my 93 Splash. I can't get it out far enough to reach behind and remove the speedometer cable and the two connecters that are attached to it. Any suggestions how I can get it out far enough or is there a different way to do it on a 1993?.
Thanks. Yours is the only video I found on this that shows removing the shift indicator. This is where I got stuck after looking at 3 or 4 other videos. However another a1 video on the same subject with this does not mention this. I think it was one about changing cluster bulbs.
Everything went back fine however I am having speedometer issues after placing everything back in place. I tried a few solutions and am now having speedometer issues. Any fix ideas?
I work on these vehicles sometimes I beleive the gauges are sealed to prevent moisture and fogging so you would need a new set or a expert to redo that.
would this be the same in a 2006 mazda b3000? also i went to your website for lightbulbs replacements for the instrument panel cluster , and there was none for my truck.

Will the mileage from the current truck if i took a gauge cluster out of a different truck or will the mileage be of of the other truck cause I want to change mine out for a rpm gauge cluster
You can take the odometer out of your cluster & swap it to the new one. Or just find a junkyard or eBay cluster with around the same miles as yours & don’t worry about it.
Can someone please help me? I have a 2000 mercury mountaineer and my wife and i was going to the store the other day and gray smoke come from the speedometer and it stoped working along with the wind shield wypers the power windows and the dome lights. I changed the instrument cluster and the gem module and nothing helped. Does anybody know of anything to fix it?
02:14, if you really wanted to could you use a small hole saw through the radio bezel to remove that one hidden 7mm screw behind, instead of removing the entire bezel? You could easily plug the hole in the bezel with a factory type plug.

Thanks! this helped me change the broken odometer worm gear and replace the bulbs in my '96 ranger
where did you get gears
That's what I'm working on is a 96
When replacing. What about the odometer, how would you change it to the current mileage ?
I’m trying to hydro dip this and have had many of these apart so just wondering what tips y’all had. Great vid tho love watching car vids
thank you for this video, I think it will be close enough to my 2010 ranger to make due
Good work..now i know what to do with mine..thanks a lot 👍
Thank you! Bought a 96 ranger and the odometer stopped working the next week!! No more check engine light :)
Thx. I fix odometer tooday 😉😉😉

+Kenny Phelps Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.

nice video, as always , but definity more work than needed for a 1994 model.

Could you put the link to find the cluster at 1Aauto
I unplugged my cluster when fixing a different part and everything worked. When I plugged it back in the tachometer doesn’t work. Any advice?
The main connectors that plug into the back of it may have a bad connection. Clean the terminals then try again.
The dash on a 1993 Ranger is completely different than this one. I'm having trouble getting the instrument cluster out of my 93 Splash. I can't get it out far enough to reach behind and remove the speedometer cable and the two connecters that are attached to it. Any suggestions how I can get it out far enough or is there a different way to do it on a 1993?.
John White any success? I am trying to get the face off my 94 splash
its the speedometer cable unclip it from the trans and you can pull it out a few more inches still gotta reach your hand behind it
don't be shy with it. just give it a good pull and it will move out a couple more inches and the cable can be removed with pliers.
You should add that you should remove fuse #11. I wound up blowing that fuse during reassembly.
Or disconnect the battery like repair manual says.
David Greer what does that fuse control?
Good to know that risk is involved. My dumb self would have forgotten to disconnect the battery thank you for the warning!
Thanks. Yours is the only video I found on this that shows removing the shift indicator. This is where I got stuck after looking at 3 or 4 other videos. However another a1 video on the same subject with this does not mention this. I think it was one about changing cluster bulbs.

the title states for 93-03 ranger but I have a 94 ranger and this is a completely different panel
Any chance you found d a better tutorial? 94 ranger here too

is there an immobilizer that will prevent the truck from starting?

Everything went back fine however I am having speedometer issues after placing everything back in place. I tried a few solutions and am now having speedometer issues. Any fix ideas?
Can you also remove and replace the glass on the cluster or would you need a new gauge cluster?

would this be the same in a 2006 mazda b3000? also i went to your website for lightbulbs replacements for the instrument panel cluster , and there was none for my truck.

Thanks, that covers most of "my question", good video.
..just excellent !
On a 95 ranger, does a replacement instrument cluster have to be programmed?

As usual 1A Auto has great videos, but maybe you should disconnect the battery before working on this type of repair.
@ed kay Would be stupid if you didn’t!
If you disconnect the battery you can damage your electronics even more than if you didn’t
I have a 98 ranger I put on two alternators battery light comes on when the switch is off and key removed goes off when the truck is running
Could ford have made it any harder ? I replaced the cluster in a 91 cougar and that very simple .
Will the mileage from the current truck if i took a gauge cluster out of a different truck or will the mileage be of of the other truck cause I want to change mine out for a rpm gauge cluster
You can take the odometer out of your cluster & swap it to the new one. Or just find a junkyard or eBay cluster with around the same miles as yours & don’t worry about it.
Your truck will crank but not start because of immobilizer.
There's huge difference between 1993 and 2003 ...this is not the process on the 94
Well what do I do if it’s a 2010 ranger am I screwed?
Putting the gear range selector requires some patience
1A Auto. Got it!!!
Great video, thanks
what about the millage of the vehicle?
