Install and tighten the two screws (2) that secure the instrument cluster to the instrument panel structural support. Tighten the screws to 4 N.m (31 in. lbs.).
Reinstall the cluster bezel onto the instrument panel. Refer to BEZEL, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, INSTALLATION .
Reconnect the battery negative cable.
NOTE:
Certain indicators in this instrument cluster are automatically configured. This feature allows those indicators to be activated or deactivated for compatibility with certain optional equipment. If a problem is noted that involves improper illumination of the cruise indicator, the electronic throttle control indicator, the fog lamp indicator, any of the four-wheel drive indicators, the overdrive OFF indicator, the tow/haul indicator, the transmission overtemp indicator, the security indicator or the gear selector indicator, disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. After about five minutes, reconnect the battery negative cable and turn the ignition switch to the ON position. The instrument cluster should automatically relearn the equipment in the vehicle and properly configure the configurable indicators accordingly.
