Hi,
I've just installed a KJ Series 1 Blackout cluster, trip computer and upper dash (instrument) loom into my TJS2. I know that a KJS2 blackout cluster into TJS2/TL/TW is "plug in and play", and the KJS1 or earlier require a upper dash loom swap and the trip computer.
I've replaced the upper loom and trip computer but I've got a few problems. Wondering if anyone has any help on any of these problems? I'm going to be checking the wiring diagrams to see uf I can see any differences in the wiring for these problems from KJS1 to KJS2's.
1) The indicators lights don't show up on the cluster. They do work - I can hear them clicking and you can see them from the outside, I just can't see them on the cluster. Globes and fuses have been checked. All seem fine.
2) Low and Normal beam lights don't show either. High beam light does come on.
3) Cruise light stays on, and temperature guage moves to full when I push the cruise button. My cruise button is on a stalk. Cruise control does actually work as needed.
4) Handbrake light is on when the car is off.
I'll be honest and admit that the upper plugs that go into the cluster (labelled "C-04" and "C-05") are a tiny bit damaged. They are very hard to get through the metal cage behind the cluster and were busted in a bit to get through. All the metal prongs look undamaged however I suppose there's still a possibility that the wire connecting to the prong could be damaged although I can't see anything.
Has anyone ever done a swap using an older KJS1 dash in their TJS2/TL/TW before?
Any ideas on what could be the problem? I might just quickly plug back in my TJs2 cluster and loom and see if the indicators show up there.
Thanks for any and every piece of helpful advice!
Cheers,
