Hey everyone. before i start taking everything apart and figuring things out, i thought i should ask some of you who have probably done this...what to expect, and what i should do. My 94 has the speedo, fuel, and temp gauge..thats it. Im going to pick up a 4runner cluster from the junkyard, because tach, voltage etc. My question is... am i going to have to wire the 4runner cluster myself? or is it plug n play? idk...what should i be looking foreward to?
search. its pretty simple. ... its what i did. figured it out. there are alot of great write ups out there.
my search starts here =P any advice from when you did yours? i.e. the tach...do i have to route a cable? or can i use the wiring i have already set up for my aftermarket tach? the voltage guage and oil pressure are self explanitory...but am i going to have to rig up a harness? i guess what i'm asking is...what prep work am i going to have to do before installing the new cluster?
my brother is seeling his off a 4 cyl no tach adjusting (cable driven) just get the oil pressure gauge n run the wire
thanks flacostaco. this is PERFECT! my cluster is electric, and i already have all of the wiring done for the tach, i'm almost positive i'm going to have to adjust it because i havn't seen a 4cyl 4runner at any JY near me. so thats settled. I'm overhauling my interior this weekend...i'll post before and after pics =P
Remember you need to disconect the oil pressure sending unit before you begin becasue if you don't you stand a chance of burning up your oil pressure gauge. If you have to run a wire for the tach it's very easy. There are quite a few write ups on how to do this. Good Luck!
^ This. Sending unit is $50. Yikes! And I had to run a tach wire on mine as well. Mine is electric too. Its pretty easy.
Facepalm moment >.< ive been going around the junkyards pulling 4runner clusters and not taking them because their cable speedo and mines not...embarrass me please hahahaha going back to grab one tomorrow...
I got my sending unit from ebay, works. It's used lol... I had to run my tach wire to my coil, my plugs weren't hooked up for it.
90, 91, 95 4Runner = cable driven 92, 93, 94 4Runner = electronic speedo Just check the VIN for the year before you pull another cable speedo Ha! just noticed how old this was. OP hope you found the correct cluster by now.
