Instrument Cluster Switch Pod - Removal

REMOVAL

WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.

NOTE: Take the proper precautions to protect the front face of the accessory switch bank bezel from cosmetic damage while performing this procedure.





1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the accessory switch bank bezel (4) from the instrument panel and place it on a work bench.
3. Remove the four screws (1 and 3) that secure the accessory switch bank (2) to the back of the bezel and remove the switch bank.
