Hey guys i just bought a '01 Ex cluster WITH harness plugs, and wires cut about 11" back, and now i need to know if anyone know's where i can get a wiring diagram for the cluster so i can put it in my 88' crx...and also has anyone done this yet? if not when i get it all done i can do a write up with pics. i have already searched and cant find anything about wiring diagrams in the EP3 thread (in the process of searching other threads) because its the most closely related civics there.
Please help guys because i need a better cluster!
TIA

search for it, there is a big thread on it.

 

in the manual for a 01 EX

 

OOh I like that cluster alot. I wish I could help becasue after I swapped in my 99-00 civic si cluster i saw that cluster in a friends new civic and it looked nice. Could you take some pics of it by any chance, maybe some close ups of the circuts on the back and the clips. It might be similar to the 99-00 civic clusters you never know. heres a link to my write up.

Hey i liked ur write up, very detailed with lots of pictures


TO the other guys, YES i have searched, maybe im not searching in the right places, do u know of this BIG thread on it as u say? I have looked and u must remember it is a 2001 EX cluster...and like i said i am continuing searching for it thanks for the help
(sorry to vent, i just want to stress that i have been searching and i continue to search... i dont know of any body who has done this yet, and i wanted to see if anyone knows about it at all yet, pls dont be honda-tech haters and just tell me to search, thanks)

 

Thats the one I was thinking of, my bad. That cluster has not been talked about much for the rex, you might just have to track the wires to proper locations, its not hard, thats what I did on my vt cluster.

yea i think i m just going to find the wiring diagrams for both, and cross reference...and i have a quick question, about repinning, how do u do it ? TIA

Its really easy, just find a REALLY small tool.

ok cool thanks, thats waht i was thinking, but i didnt want to jump in and start tearing apart stuff ya know?

 

i think im just going to cross reference the 01EX cluster with the 88crx cluster, and then also wire up the VSS at the same time, and hopefully it will work...i was searching, and all i can find is the wiring for the EP3 and the RSX, and they say do it because of k-series issues, but i dont think that will apply to this cluster, because it is still D-series, so i dont know we ll find out

 

bump anyone have more info?

Some info about repining. I tried to repin the crx wires dircectly into the civic clips but the metal pins on the end of the crx wires are much bigger then the civic ones, they didn't even fit onto the clips. just thought you should know this i just ended up cutting each wire and soddering it to the civic clips. You may have ot do this if you attempt this swap.

thanks, i ll keep that in mind, but i may not do it now, i grabbed the cluster and shortly after i came up on a motor with a much higher redline, so the cluster may just go up for sale
