Fuel Gauge (Except Sable With Tachometer Cluster): Removal

  1. Remove instrument cluster finish panel retaining screws and remove finish panel. Remove eight mask-and-lens mounting screws and remove mask and lens. Lift main dial assembly from backplate.
    NOTE: The gauges are mounted to main dial, and some effort may be required to pull quick-connect electrical terminals from clips.
  2. On column shift vehicles only, remove two screws attaching transmission selector indicator (PRNDL or PRN(OD)DL) to main dial and remove indicator from cluster.
  3. Manually rotate pointer to align it with slot in dial. Remove mounting screws and carefully pull gauge away from dial, guiding pointer through slot.
