Question: Instrument cluster
Question
Has anybody had any problems seeing the cluster in daylight running. It's almost impossible to read the gauges during bright light conditions. The dealer says that all the led's are ok. Look's good in the shop , but drive outside during the day, and the cluster looks black. Haven't gotten a ticket yet for not nowing how fast i'mm going during the day. Thank's......

MasterAre your lights on, because if they are, the cluster gets dimmed by design? Try manually shutting off all your headlights. The Day Light Running lamps should pose no issues. Good Luck !

Then they had to back order the entire instrument cluster with the speedometer! Took a month to get in, had ford tracking it every week. Mine had a short in it, would work sometimes, then would go out and you could not see how fast you were going...really sucks...good luck
