S1 Cluster Upgrade - Coming Soon!

[GK]

Hi all,

I've got the cluster, oil pressure sender, the 27mm deep tube socket (thanks JC) and a stack of info, including a pic of the pin positions. I want to thank Falkeen (Adam) for an absolute stack of help with answering questions and LG for putting me onto him. Much appreciated all.

I had the Futura dash out tonight and quickly slipped the XR one in. As predicted, the Oil Gauge, Dash Illumination, ABS light upon startup and the Right side Indicator were all missing.

The dash has spots for 3 plugs, one on the right, two on the left, the upper one is missing from the low series loom.

Falkeen told me that he wired up 4 separate wires to those corresponding pins (that do the functions I mentioned above) on the top left spot on the cluster, then cut those matching wires out of the single plug and attached them up outside the normal plug arrangement. Then he plugged the right and left plugs in and voila! All systems go! He did mention heat shrinking the wires up to keep them separate. I don't yet know what shrink wrap is and how to do it, but I will soon. LOL!

I've got it pretty much sussed out in my mind, it did take some toing and froing with Falkeen via email, but I'll soon give it a go.

Of course I'll do a write up with pics, as is my usual custom.

Cheers,

GK
