Are you serious??? Just pull the old blown one out either with needle nose pliers or a fuse puller and plug the new one in! Pretty self-explanatory.

are you sure its a fuse, and not a light bulb that blew? if you swap out the fuse and it doesnt fix anything, check out your lights in the gauge cluster.

read the cover on the fuse box under the dash and look for the one thats labeled for the gauge cluster.

Taking the cluster out?
It's pretty easy.
Unbolt the under column cover thing, drop the steering rack, unscrew and take off the gauge bezel, then unscrew the gauge cluster and pull it out.

Drop the steering RACK??? Are you smoking something??? All you need to do is remove the lower panel (above the driver's knees), the column cover (covers the switches on the column), un-bolt the steering column and drop it down (4 12mm bolts/nuts), remove the guage cluster bezel, and remove the cluster itself. Everything is either a 10mm bolt, 12mm nut/bolt, or a phillips head screw. Do everything in the order mentioned above and you will have no problems.

Clearly he meant column. Haha. Not rack...

[racepar1]

Clearly he should have stated column not rack then. The guy we are trying to help does not seem aware enough to realize that.

Hahaha. Ya, I was just being sarcastic... as in he was way off on the rack part and this guy would have no idea what he's talking about.

i have a problem as well with my cluster
the tail light fuse blow so i replaced it with a new one but it only stayed on for like a minute then it blow so whats wrong

this reminds me of my buddy daves 240. he doesn't have much of his interior or lower kick panels. there a little white box under the fuse panel sorta. his gauge cluster went out. radio. int. lights and some other things went out. he couldn't figure it out. none of his fuses were blown. he kicked this box by accident and it would flicker on an off. he tried switching the box with one of the other 4 240s around. bam. fixed everything.

so keep that in mind if your fuses are still good. and I find it hard to believe that ALL the bulbs in the cluster blew and I think your wasting your time pulling the cluster

[whatda]

the white box is the light timer box right ^^^^^

[ch1873857]

sure...I don't know what the helll it is
