Mustang Gauge Cluster Swap SN95 (94-04)

[@JamesFarris60]

I swapped my 2004 Mustang GT gauges for the 2001 Mustang GT Bullitt instrument cluster. Ford dealership did the installation. Looked like factory original. 👍

Love seeing videos on the new edge! Nobody does diy’s/informational vids on them anymore

Im here to change that! Glad you enjoyed!

Thank you ! All your videos are awesome … very detailed and simple !

Thats dope dude.

[@corbinhurst8313]

i want to thank you so much for the video finally found that dash cluster and installed it today

[@Thatlowdsg]

Did you get a Mach 1 or bullit tach? And it totally changes the look but no problem man!

[@FA-ud8fy]

That was a job,,, nice work.

I have a 04 Mustang GT automatic dark shadow gray and love it and I know you love yours too happy tang to ya

[@Michelle-tr8ty]

Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. You mentioned that you can change out to a digital speedo, which is fabulous to know. I have low vision and sometimes reading the speedo is tough. I've been using a secondary digital speedo that mounts in a vent clip, but if can change out the factory speedo for digital... Wow! What would you suggest?

[@Thatlowdsg]

If it’s digital I was talking about aftermarket ones which I honestly don’t know any I’ve only looked at trim/stock one’s. They can be pricey too and custom so may take some order time. If the vent clip doesn’t bother you’d I’d honestly stick with that!

[@jonhatfield5459]

Much appreciated!!

[@jasonpurnia4615]

Now my only question is will this work between the 94-98 years if swapping with a 99-04 cluster? I know the title says 94-04 but...are the sn95 and new edge models using the same cluster style, size and all of that for a direct swap? I know the 99-04 lenses will not swap with 94-98 and vice versa!

Thanks man cool video just swap my cluster 👍👍👍

Heck yeah, what cluster did you end up swapping to

Hey glad you enjoyed!

[@RBoysMedia]

Yo bro. I took my needles off to remove the cluster tint so my leds were visible, and I realized when I put them back on they didn’t auto adjust. So all my gauges were whack. Didn’t even think about the test mode gauge reset. THANKS

[@Thatlowdsg]

That’s awesome I didn’t know it would also help with that scenario!

[@RBoysMedia]

@@Thatlowdsg I did it, it definitely helped set the even. They weren’t calibrated right but they were all even if that makes sense. I just need to push them to the right spot and test gauge again until they go perfect. So it works

[@atm1513]

I did this on a f250 I bought to clean behind cover, needles didn't work. Had to take to dealer to reprogram

[@josejara8486]

Did this couple weeks ago didn’t swap the boards and car wouldn’t start but I found it easier to just swap the faces instead of the boards but none the less good info enjoyed the video .. keep it up good content

[@m1kefloyd]

bro how did you swap the faces? i’m currently trying to do the same thing .. do i pull the needles and then glue the new overlay to the old one ?

[@m1kefloyd]

any advice would be much appreciated

[@Thatlowdsg]

I wouldn’t risk it, I’d just swap the boards like I showed in the video, less prone to break it that way or have any faults.

[@Thatlowdsg]

Every single time. If you find other wise let me know but you'll have to do it everytime. It isn't hard just a lil annoying.

[@tonyribeiro3856]

I gess all it thakes to upgade the original cluster of a 1994 BASE mustang ( that does not have the LOW FUEL INDICATOR ) is to get a 2001 GT cluster, like the one you are installing and its eletrical harness, rignt?

[@Thatlowdsg]

Honestly Tony I'm not sure, the 94-98's had a different style gauge cluster so im sure the wiring or board readings will not work. Id try to look up on the mustang forums or sn95 one.

[@mn12sc35th]

No. 94-98 clusters are totally different.

[@corbinhurst8313]

where can i find the cluster im looking to buy on

[@Thatlowdsg]

Honestly can’t send you any direct links. I was searching months online on fb, eBay, any google links I could find with someone selling it. Found mine on eBay

[@19010202]

Hi sr,do you have or do you know the diagram connection for this cluster?i have one of these to use it in a simulator but i need to know the positive, negative,which pin is the rpm and tachometer, directional, do you understand what i mean?thanks.

[@Thatlowdsg]

Sounds cool to build sim outta this, been thinking of the same. But I don’t know the diagram personally. I’d give it a google search with whatever one you plan on using to see if someones posted it online. Dont want to give you misinformation man sorry. Goodluck!

[@jondoe9858]

My current mustang 2000 V6 mileage is not working. My question is if I just buy an used cluster, when installing it do I need to reprogram it or bring it to the dealer?

When i swapped my cluster by this method I didn’t need to reprogram it/ bring it to a dealer.

I've been told that you have to disable the PATS System even if you do board swap. Any info on that?

[@randystaubin8797]

Hi I have the same cluster you started out with. My issue is that the speedometer doesn't work, and the mileage will work when it wants to. If I get another cluster from a salvage yard, how would someone reprogram the correct mileage onto the replacement cluster or circuit board? Any help would be great. Someone told me that a dealer would have to program the circuit board. Is that a fact or is it something that can be done on my own? Thanks

[@Thatlowdsg]

Sorry Randy just now saw this, more than likely a dealer will have to program it. if you cant swap the circuit board like i showed and that doesnt do the trick it will need reprogrammed. as for the cluster issues i looked around on forums its probably a bad ground located behind the radio. something about the pcm or vss is what i saw online. check the grounds and check fuses.

[@jared5837]

Hey Man! This should work with a V6 as well right?

[@Thatlowdsg]

The process to remove and reinstall is the same. You can't swap a gt board or bullitt one onto a V6 tho

[@zangetsuslayingmoon8884]

so i recently swapped out my whole dash (including the cluster) without doing this and have anti theft popping up from the pats. do you think reprogramming the key will fix this or do you think i would have to replace the ecu with a matching cluster from a junk yard?

I'm having the same issue and I believe that is the fix I got a quote from a local locksmith for 80 bucks

[@zangetsuslayingmoon8884]

@@parkercuhh7739 did it work?

Sorry for seeing this later but I believe that reprogramming at a dealer or like Parker said a locksmith. I’d call a ford dealer and get some quotes if you can’t find the circuit/pats from the original cluster.

[@sugarprobe]

@@ThatlowdsgI have a 03 cobra that is a USA car. I live in Canada and recently found a factory NOS cluster. I’m guessing if I swap without swapping the boards I’ll have to take in to get milage programmed and keys/theft programmed ?

[@leniores6240]

Do you have to do that test run or you can just bypass it once everything is swapped? It should read your original miles and security settings correct?

[@Thatlowdsg]

You dont necessarily have to but I encourage to to see if all the gauges run proper. All those settings and miles are saved by swapping yes.

Hey a quick question! Are the plug harnesses the same for a 1997 mustang? It uses the same gauge cluster im just wanting to swap out my SN95 (1997) to a new edge (2001) cobra cluster. I want the digital odometer! Thanks for the content (:

[@Thatlowdsg]

Yes! This process will work on your 97’, from 96-04 they all came basically the same tachometer just different colors of package depending on trim etc but this will work on your 97’’! Thanks for watching hope this video helps!

[@d3w881]

Thatlowdsg omg thank you so much for the quick reply!! :D I cant wait to do this now

[@mn12sc35th]

This is neat for sure, but it doesn't work for 98 and earlier cars. I hate to be that guy, but this guy's gonna waste time/money on this and be disappointed in the end. The 99+ gauges are ECU driven (and tied into the PATS system), have different pin locations (to prevent the gauges being swapped into an older cluster), and different cluster connectors (to prevent the cluster being swapped into an older car). The only way to get a 99+ cluster running in a 94-98 car would be to swap the ECU and associated wiring, or run an aftermarket ECU that supports it (I know one of the plug and play Megasquirts does). You see New Edge Coyote Swaps run 94-98 clusters for the same reason (they don't have to run the stock ECU). If this guy wants a digital Odometer that bad, a Dakota Digital cluster would be easier.

[@d3w881]

Tylor Emmett Yeah it didnt work and I had to resell it lol. I shouldve done more research then go off 1 persons input. But i was able to resell it so all is good. My stock cluster is still bad tho ):
