Some of the problems that we see and repair for on the 2004 - 2008 F150 include:
1) Intermittent loss of gauge operation or erratic behavior as well as intermittent illumination of multiple warning lights .
2) Illuminated or flickering red brake warning lamp
3) Loss of communication with cluster and setting of U codes
4) Failure of single gauge where it is sticking or erratic
5) Loss of odometer display
6) Intermittent loss of cluster operation causing loss of power windows, door locks, radio, etc.. when cluster is powering off.
7) Dome / Cargo lamps staying on all the time (F150)
8)Air Bag light not coming on (F150)
9) Battery Drain condition

What a remarkable, straight to the point, and no"what did they say about this part"? Even a mechanically "tortured" person can see this video and accomplish the task at hand with confidence. Thanks for the video, without any interruptions, or ads, and no losing focus on the task at hand due to unnecessary "gimmicks" trying to persuade me. I. Will undoubtedly seek the professional instruction and guidance this site provides.Best video yet,,, of all time,,,,,, just saying! Ty
Great job on the video. You made it easy for me to get in there and fix the bad solder joint. Without breaking my dash. It's nice to see a TH-cam video without music and editing. Just right to the point the way I like it.
Glad it helped
Straight forward, you are easy to understand. Simple process made simpler by a clear and concise video.
I just wanted to thank you for very good video about removing cluster , very helpful ,
This video is very helpful! I had a problem with the instrument cluster display, thanks to your video I could remove and repair it.
Awesome video, thanks. I had to replace my odometer light bulb and got it done in about 10 minutes.
Rob Kurylowicz Yes but I we’d like to see how he do it to change the bulb light on the back side. because my. F 150. Dash board is not on even the truck. Is on.
Excellent video!! Thank you very much
Very Helpful, Thank You.. ! 👍

Great and informative video. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
You make it look like butter. 👍👍👍 until I try it. Thank you
Thank you sir
Thank you, helped make the removal a snap.
You're welcome!
Thank you for this informative video. I have a stainless steel bezel I want to install and this will be easy to do. I appreciate you for making this video for those of us trying to do repairs / updates. Too often we get burned by the PRO's charging far too much. Many thanks. :)

Thanks for showing how to remove the dash.I just fixed my brake light by using plastic toilet shims behind the connector. Works fine so far.
I guess I'm not the only one.
Eventually you will need to repair it though along with other problems these can experience such as erratic gauge behavior, loss of odometer and cluster operation.
@@ClusterFixWashington realise this is an old post but it wouldn't have been that hard to show trans indicator cable removal.. below indicator there are two tabs that push inward, then slide indicator down to free from cluster
thanks a lot for posting this. worked exactly the same in my 2008 to remove the plastic dash parts. I knew it was something stupid when everytime the light brake light came on a few knocks to the dash would turn it off. i was able to make some electrical tape wedges and secured to keep short out. pretty weird!
I'm here because of the same problem in my 07.
Red brake warning lights coming on are a common problem with these and are one of several issues that we address in our repair service.
Thank you I needed to do this 2 get at my brake light sender
Was your light staying on?
What a money saving video
THANKS ............ I'm going after the DING DING DING DING DING Annoying Seatbelt speaker inside the gauge cluster.... its in the middle right lower side.... there is a video on YT how to remove...
Is all the plug ins the same for different styles of gauge clusters?
On a different note. I have a 2007. Did you ever run into the trouble of your air vent motor turning on by itself with the dials in the off position? If yes what the heck was causing it to do that?
The PRNDL may not work unless it is also carefully removed (at some point).
My battery gage isn't working for some reason I don't why. I don't know if it's broken or if it's just a fuse. The needle points straight down it looks like if it's broken. Is this a do-it-yourself fix or should I take it to the dealer? Any advice would greatly help. Thanks in advance and great vid b
That_Ford _Guy
Same problem did u ever find the issue ?
The stepper motors on the back of the circuit board go bad..Certain Ford ones are hard to come by partic..the 2004 f150 lariat ones..there is a you tube video on replacing them..solder iron required..If your going to replace one,do all six.....Or send it out to be done.
Would changing the pad give you the mileage Of that specific odometer reading or what i had?
No, that info is stored in the ECM
👍👍👍
What about the shift indicator cable?
And how do you unhook the shifter indicator cable?
Clip upside downon it on bottom where it's indicator at
Do you know how the cable comes off to change the whole panel?
Choppin 290 i hope you found your answer. It took me a week to figure it out
@@thedoopa3169 so how do you remove it?
The needle on my battery gage is broken. Is it repairable or will I have to get another cluster?
Did you figure that one out? I'm having the same problem with mine. Its only the battery guage everything else works just fine. I'm assuming its the cluster??
Gauges themselves can fail causing erratic operation or be inoperative altogether and in some cases the driver circuits are the culprit but both are fairly common problems that we address in our repair service.
How about the cord coming out the bottom of the cluster I can't seem to figure out???
There are tabs one on each side. It should slide straight out.
dunno if anybody is still watching these, but hey thanks for the helpful video. my 07 has an additional cable on the bottom of the gauge cluster that I can't get disconnected. There's some kind of tab or latch I move that gets the cable to come out 1/4", but I can't get it disconnected and thus can't get the gauge cluster out. anybody else have some pics of that? thnx
It will come all the way out but it needs to come down evenly on both sides so that it does not hang up
I just replaced my cluster in my 2004 new body f150 and ran into that as well. It's the gear select indicator. You have to follow the cable all the way down to the base of the gear stick where you'll find a small loop at the end of this cable. That loop goes around a little piece of metal sticking out on the gear stick. You can easily remove this loop from the gear stick and use a T-bit to remove the white plastic piece at the end. I did see a guy on the Automotive Circuit Solutions channel remove the gear selection from the cluster itself. The video is titled "How to Remove 2004-2008 Ford F-150 Gauge Cluster with Odometer Problem" from 1/22/18.
It's dumb how all of the trims have different instrument clusters.
and ford wants to charge 2 hours of labor for this... wow
