Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC): Removal

NOTE: It is critical that the correct Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) be installed when installing a new IPC. The IPC differs between Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) vehicles equipped with Intelligent Access (IA) and vehicles not equipped with IA. If the incorrect IPC is installed, the vehicle may exhibit a PATS no-start condition.
NOTE: If installing a new IPC, all vehicle keys are erased during the parameter reset procedure. Verify at least 2 of the vehicle keys are available prior to carrying out this procedure.
  1. If installing a new IPC, upload the module configuration information to the scan tool. For additional information, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION SYSTEM Article.
  2. Remove the IPC finish panel. For additional information, refer to INSTRUMENT PANEL AND CONSOLE Article.
  3. Remove the 4 screws and the IPC.
    • Disconnect the electrical connector.
