gauge cluster question
 
so im hoping someone can help me out with this... the Tire pressure light is out, and after doing some research, it looks like its one of the hardwired leds (non replaceable)... so i found some clusters on ebay that arent too expensive... but my question is, do all clusters have the tire pressure light? or do i need to find a cluster from a car that had that option?


(the reason i know its out is that the car dings 3 times after its been on a few seconds, after the initial seatbelt dings... it was bugging the sh!t out of me, until i finally checked the RPO codes and saw mine has the tire pressure option... the light does not come on even during first start up when all the others come on for a second, nor does it come on when i try the reset procedure...)

also, i apologize if this is in the wrong thread... not sure if this is a troubleshooting or how to question...

you could take yours, unsolder the bulb and replace it....


but to answer your question, all clusters have that bulb, but some cars don't have the option for it. So it sits unused.

I would just solder in an LED in it's place, it's super easy to do. I did it with all of my dummy lights...

thanks for the responses guys... i may just do that... the more im thinking about it tho, i may wait, simply because it continues to ding even after i have reset it, so there may be a bad sensor (at least thats what ive read is the most common issue with the TPS)... that orange glowing led might get pretty annoying pretty fast...
