One of the best instructional videos on youtube, not just this one but all of them! Keep it up boss

[@barricadegarage5361]

kyle peterson thanks boss👍

[@KJsProjects]

Dude, nice video! I like how you explain everything and it was easy to follow. Keep it up!

[@Mainsail333]

I'm glad I found this video, just in time for my project on my 98 ZJ

[@420_TechGuy]

I have to say 🤟bravo. Video was comical yet subtle and to the point. Very well displayed. 👍👍keep then coming. JEEP FOR LIFE!

[@allenjenkins1322]

hey buddy that was probably the best self help vid, and most descriptive ive seen on here. love it man keep it up. better 96 dirt luvin cheep zj here

[@barricadegarage5361]

Allen Jenkins thanks for watching

[@2tallB]

Those LEDs are pretty cool. I just pulled the cluster in my 5.9 as well. My only suggestion would be to use a magnetic screwdriver and possibly even use something to cover the hole in front of the gauge cluster. When you try to put the screws back in, it’s super easy to drop them and they disappear down that hole. ;)

[@michaelzima5792]

Made it very easy to understand, also liked your video on coolant temp sensor, both EXTREMELY helpful!!! Keep it up

[@MichaelBrown-wt2pq]

Love your videos! I have the same Cherokee and your videos have been a god send!! Thank you!!

[@tylork8025]

Great Video. These ZJs are getting old but they are a great vehicle. I got 180,700 miles on my 96. I take care of her. And yeah, she needs work. But she has never left me high and dry. Ill do all these mods. See how long I can have fun changing her up, and how long she will get me from A to B

[@ChristianWTR1]

Bro i love your ZJ videos keep them coming!

[@smitty5431]

This video actually helped me a lot (even though I was replacing the whole gauge cluster unit. Thought it was going to be 1000x harder than it was!

[@izzojoseph2]

Dude, great video! I had an issue getting the ‘neaaaa’ done exact. Then tried it without saying ‘neaaa’ and it worked!

[@taylorrathbun6769]

Great video I’ve done so many repairs to my zj from watching your videos you’ve probably saved me thousands in mechanic labor could you make a video changing the light bulbs in the lights on the ceiling the ones you push to come on that would be amazing

[@wildbill23c]

Great video, easy to follow, thank you. I need to do this to my 98 ZJ. I have one of the speedometer bulbs burned out on mine anyhow so may as well do the LED swap since I have to take it apart anyhow.

[@notwrkn2mch]

Great video, this is gonna help me with my 95 ZJ, thanks man!

[@Sarg3nt]

is it the same as this? i have a 95

[@neonhomer]

Something else you can do is get a bottle of Testors "Turn Signal Amber" model paint. It is translucent orange. You can use this to redo you gauge needles if they have faded out.

[@fiveninegarage]

I like the blinker fluid 😂

[@michealhalckias7782]

Blinker fluid🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@evanfriel3323]

Looks good. Just got an 97 zj and starting to modify it

[@DrHavok1]

Nice job man

[@hascg1]

excelente saludos desde paraguay

[@tnargskoorb1]

One thing is would like to say is I changed my turn signal bulbs to LED as well. They worked fine for a long time but eventually the right turn was flashing way too fast. Turns out it didn’t like the LED. I put conventional bulbs back in just for the signals and all is good.

[@torslilbro1]

Excellent 👍

[@jerrodcorey25]

6:29 Pieces in like Nyaaaaaaaar. With that side like Nyaaaaaaaaaar. 🤣🤣🤣 I tried that step and the pieces would not go back in but then I made the noise and Wallah it works great!!!!! HELLZ YEAH

Thanks bro will do the up grade thanks

[@brossovitch]

This is an old vid, but I came in search of bulb type so I can convert my ZJ cluster to LED. I have everything inside and out replaced with LED bulbs except the gauge cluster and instrument console panel. Those are coming next. Thanks for the reminder of 194 bulbs.

[@MiguelBaptista1981]

Thanks mate. Cheers!

[@michaels.nicoletti4963]

Hi great video I Upgraded my dash lights to the green like yours . Looks great ! I have one problem I have flashers and blinkers ,always ,but when I put my headlights on I lose the dash blinker on both the flashers and turn signals , and I noticed the warning light at the bottom of the cluster gage show "master lighting switch" bulb on . Could the dimmer switch be causing this no dash flasher when the headlights are on thing???.. I am puzzled as to what it could be . Do you have any ideas? All of your videos are very explanatory and understandable !! THANK YOU !!

[@briantoste904]

Awesome instructional! Do those LEDs work with the dimmer?

[@c-jen8923]

I know video couple years old, but with the sockets you have to undo the solder; go to the junk yard and grab a few of the sockets that you can just push the bulb right into. They are interchangeable.

[@bevanbaxter1350]

Way to go,

[@kevinschneider5268]

Quick question……the buttons for OD and rear window defrost are NOT illuminating. Not the indicator like that let’s you know they’re on….it’s the button themselves. I took the switch unit out but don’t see any bulbs inside. Are they supposed to pick up light from somewhere else? Thanks!

[@orileymcspadden9116]

This is a super video! I have a 1997 ZJ and I noticed that the light on the Temperature Gage is not as bright as all the rest. What are your thoughts on that? Is a bulb about to go out on that gage? Thanks for the video.

[@barricadegarage5361]

O'Riley McSpadden most likely just a poor connection or the bulb is on its way out.

[@orileymcspadden9116]

Barricade Garage, thanks for the quick reply. I will talk a look at that as soon as I get some other things sorted out. Thanks again.

I installed same kind of leds to my 5.9 ZJ. Leds work fine but my turn signal bulbs in the instrument gauge stopped working. Turn signals on the outside still work, only the instrument bulbs are out. They never came on once installed the leds. Do you or someone else have an idea whats up with that? Thanks.

[@barricadegarage5361]

There probably just burned out

[@hyyne]

BARRICADE GARAGE I had changed the turn signal bulbs also to led and they did not work. When I changed the turn signal bulbs back to halogen they worked just fine. Thanks for the answer anyways. Rest of the gauge lights are led and works good.

[@koryjarrett6335]

what head unit is this?

[@barricadegarage5361]

OldsVistaCruiser yeah this is my '96 Limited. what you got planned for that orvis tho???

[@OldsVistaCruiser]

BARRICADE GARAGE - Mostly stock, a few upgrades, since there aren't many unmolested Orvises around. I watched your video about replacing the headlights, as mine are foggy. I definitely want to get rid of the common "COOLANT SENSOR BAD" problem with the EVIC.

[@kevinwells4591]

Do you know anything about the check gages light? How do I do this? Besides the obvious. My gages and lights are going crazy.

[@barricadegarage5361]

+Kevin Wells start at the battery. Check the condition of the terminals and clean any build up. A bad alternator can also cause those symptoms.

That's all new, I've been traveling alot lately and sleeping in the Jeep. Do you think condensation might have something to do with it?
