see if you can depin the old harness plugs and insert the removed pins into the new harness plugs. that way there isnt any soldering involved. toyota has a tendency to change connectors but not pins, but i haven't messed with the cluster plugs at all, might save alot of time if they are the same.

Just a little update the cluster lights up and everything. Only problem are the tach speedometer and outside temp thats not working. Everything else is awesome. I will go back over those wires tomorrow. If anyone has any inputs about why my wiring isnt working please let me know.

Man that is looking awsome. I dont think the outside temp will work unless ur car already had outside temp. And the other issues beats me wish I could help. BUTTTTT do you think you could hook me up with the wire matching required once you get the speed and tach to work ? I think it will be a bit cheaper to do it myself than buy an already made harness ? Please

Was the Outside temp working before? mine never worked when i had my 1JZ.

The tach was my concern also, because i am finishing up a swap on 95 and I am using a 97 dash harness and 97 cluster.
Let me see what i can figure out this week end.

Kool. If you look at the 95 sc diagram on page 3 i cannot find where pin 13c goes. Thats probably whats causing my speedometer not
to work.

I have a 1992 SC300 Auto without Traction, will this fit?

I have an annoying issue with dancing needle(speedometer) had bought one in the past but end up with the same unsolved issue.

I'm wondering if anyone has this problem and know how to fix it, it would be very appreciated.
