Did you know all pre 2000 SC, ES and I think GS needles are interchangeable but not LS (needles are cathodes). And now you know and knowing is half the battle.

Seems like I'll be purchasing a cluster soon too.

Soarer13oy: could you offer some insight on the cluster swap please?

i have a cluster 98+ sc300 cluster because it says L-2-3-D IN THE GATED SHIFT PATTERN. SC400 should say L-2-3-4-D IN THE GATED PATTERN, CORRECT?

soarer13oy did you get the mpg data to work?

On the 99SC3002of4 D1 is listed "Fuel Injector No. 1". Does this mean the wire going to fuel injector 1 get's spliced into the cluster?

In the same diagram D21 is listed "A/C Control Assembly" Does this mean the proper climate control unit is needed for outside air temperature to work?

UpInTheLex is it possible for you to get the 1995 automatic air conditioner diagrams?

Thanks.

Any luck on this? I just got my cluster.

My car is 92 and my cluster is a 99, I took a look at the wiring on the third page, but nothing on a 99 SC4, looks like the plugs are different.

Then I took a look at the excel file and couldn't make odds or ends of it lol

I never really bothered with the mpg. I get some numbers on avg mpg, but i figured id need either wiring form the fuel tank or something to get it to work correctly so i never bothered

sc400 should be pretty similar to sc300 plug wise. Only difference i can think of is gear 4 before D. For the excel spread sheet it tells you which pin from the 99 c luster goes to which for the 95.

Right, I got that, but I have no idea which plug is which. And I don't know the pin direction.

I tried to look at colors but same thing, there seems to be a few of them that have the same colors on different plugs

ihiryu.



Looking at the plug like so the light blue wire would be 1 and red with green tracer would be 3.

soarer13oy. I was able to figure it out.

For MPG to work t-tap fuel injector 1 coming off the ECU to the yellow wire coming off orange connector (d) pin 1.

Outside air temp is slightly confusing.
For a 1995 vehicle the wire is already there meaning it's plug and play.
The Soarer got outside air temp in 93 so it's quite possible a 93 or 94 climate control unit can output the single if an extra wire is added.
If not 1992 through 1994 vehicles need to be converted to the 1995 and up system.
