Finally said it's time to fix the speed-O on our 2004 Jayco! So off came the dash. The chassis is an E450 so it took a bit to figure out how to remove the trim panel. Two screws in the top of the dash, then carefully pulling the dash trim off. Move steering wheel to lowest position, and shift lever to the lowest shift point. Four more screws to remove the instrument cluster... then remove the shift indicator first followed by reaching behind cluster and unplug the three wiring plugs. Out comes the instrument cluster. Summit now supplies rebuilt instrument clusters. They are actually shipped from Dorman.
As long as the dash was out and I wait for the replacement instrument cluster I now have installed a new flat screen radio with GPS, XM radio feed, and rear camera. A little trim in the dash framing and it slipped right in.


And even pull out the old tube TV and replaced it with a Flat Screen ... and JUST as I finished the TV, UPS dropped off the new instrument cluster to it's all back together now. All ready for a road test tomorrow!
