Help out a noob, please.
I tried to use the search feature....can never get 'em to work. I may be old, but I hate the digital guage cluster in my '03 DeVille....Can anyone just simply tell me if I can plug in the "analog" digital cluster from a DHS or DTS?
my guess is maybe.
often we can swap electronics between same year models but
as soon as the BCM changes in a model, so do a bunch
misc electronics.
as you, i cant stand the digitals. analog is it for me.
just to give you an example of the "maybe", on the Allante, look what they did - it took 4 years of
data collection and search to come up with this paragraph:
CLUSTER, compatibility - The analog and digital clusters for 1993 fit 1993 ONLY. The analog and digital clusters for 1990 through 1992 fit ‘90-‘92 ONLY. 1987 digital cluster will fit 1987 through 1989. ‘88/’89 digital clusters will fit ‘87 through ‘89. The ‘88/’89 analog clusters will fit ‘87 through ‘89. Nothing is backward or forward compatible outside of these groupings.
.
Sorry, it's not that simple.
The IPC needs to be programmed to your car, and if you use a different part there is a good change other modules won't recognize it.
I'm sure there is a way to make it work, but without a flash programmer i think you'll be dead in the water.
