Default Hooking up my new cluster



Hey everybody. I just got my new cluster for my '88 CRX Si. The only things that I know work for sure are my turn signals, fuel gauge, oil light and trunk open light. I've searched the recent and acrhved stuff already and can't find ****. I've even googled and Yahooed it. Still nothing. If I can't find it after a while I guess I'll just try to pin2pin until I at least find the RPM Gauge one. Thank.

swap out the entire tach cluster and speedo cluster with your usdm and everything will work perfect...

How would that work? The old cluster went up to 120. Would the speedometer know the difference?

You think it'll work on the old cluster? I'm using a '89 DX Automatic CRX cluster and though it looks like a manual one I don't know if it'll work.

if its not an sir cluster everything should work, and if your car is an 88-89 then it should go right in like a replacement, and as far as the auto ones go that have a tach, those will work too

The auto also has a tach. The only reason I'm running that one is because the one I got with the car was painted and red and retarded.

Bump for help. I put the new cluster back in to see if anything else happens.

The only things still working are speedometer, fuel gauge, and the few other things in the first post. I tried swapping over the speedomater portion of the new cluster into the old one but it really ain't working. I know the dash harness I have is from an '88 CRX Si for sure. They plug in but they just ain't working.
