Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster

Yeah but your diagram doesent really show me what the wires do its not a pinout diagram or anything. I appreciate the help its what I asked for but now Im trying to find another source so I can get this hooked up. I called honda and they said they coudlent even tell me what the pins went to so I dont know what to do.

Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster

Ok, So I took some guessing today and start hooking wires on the diagram. Turns out that my diagram of my cluster is really close but the 03 Cluster is Not. I started with the turn signal, I hooked it up into where I thought it was on the 03 cluster and the check engine light comes on. I turn my signal just to check and sure enough the check engine light starts flashing(lol). So I try every other pin on the blue harness which controls the left turn signal and nothing. Just to get the engine light to work I had to hook the yellow wire up on the green harness that is labeld "power". Im going to asume that there is another power hookup on the cluster? Because I hooked that same wire to all of them on the blue harness and just got the Engine, Oil, Park, Nutral, Reverse light to work was about it. I also thought that the gauge lights were on the blue harness also but nothing ever came on, I couldent even get the tach so Im having a really hard time just because I cant find a good layout of the 03 Cluster can anyone help?

Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster

Ok, so Im not too sure if this is going to work judging by the wiring diagram. The only gauge that it shows by itself on the 03 is the gas gauge. Im not sure what some of these wires mean that just say fuse and all that but by the looks of it, this wont work but someone please correct me.

Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster

Alright, I went in today and tryed one last thing. I have turn signals working, gauge lights, fuel gauges, tach., The only problem I have now is the spedometer and the temp and odometer(havant messed with it yet so it might not be a problem). Anyway the wire on the 03 cluster they all go into is the same color. All the gauges hook into it, it seems. What can I do about this?

Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster

Ok I have everything working that I really need except Spedometer, Odo, and Temp. When the car is on is it just sending a certain voltage to the motor of them to make them move? Could I possible tie straight into the motors?

Re: 97 Civic LX Cluster to 03 Civic LX Cluster
