DIY MyColor center cluster install

[Leosegura155]

Lines 760-01-01 to 760-01-04

For future install
My premium cluster is already on its way but to change the clusters VIN (premium cluster) to my OEM Vin what would I change in those lines? I was browsing forscan on my car and couldn’t find anything on it just the actual Vin itself and the Odometer Change. I tried looking for the Sync 3 vin change but also couldn’t find it.

Check out the start of this thread it tells you all about it. You download Forscan snd get a trial premium license. You also need a OBD2 usb yo plug into a laptop. Be careful changing mileage and I would drive your car so it gives even mileage. example 21,344.0. Not 22,344.7. Not sure if it really matters but I just like to have thr miles closely match wherever else the miles are saved in the computer. Also Forscan won’t let your edit anything less then a mile.On another note make sure the dash your buying has lower mileage then your current one. Can only add mileage not subtract eithout bringing it to someone for a lot of money

Hey man my mileage was 47726.0 and the new cluster was less. I changed it in forscan and it changed it to “47725” on forscan and on the cluster to “47723.4” any idea why

To install you will need 9/32" or 7mm socket, extension bar and socket wrench or adapter to attach 9/32" or 7mm socket to screwdriver. One zip tie. Forscan, laptop and OBD2 adapter. I used ELM327 USB Modified for Ford with FTDI chip - MS-CAN support Mazda Forscan OBD2 that I got off eBay. You will also need a premium Mycolor cluster Auto part # FR3Z-10849-EA while premium MT would be FR3Z-10849-GA, mainly E for auto and G for MT. After aquiring all items above your ready for install.

Remove right passenger side small black panel between door and glove box, then remove driver side small trim panel between door and panel. On the right side of the steering wheel pull from the top of the panel down the small black panel it will hang, remove center trim panel above stereo. Back to driverside remove four screws, then on right side of steering wheel remove one screw. Head light switch panel after removing screws pull panel and let it hang. Top panel on the left side of steering wheel pull top forward and remove last screw. Pull steering wheel all the way forward and down and lock into place. Pull the trim piece up on the top of the steering wheel then pull it into the center gap of the steering wheel opening, pull the center cluster benzel out it is attached to the left vent which has clips. After removing pull cluster out on the right side it is attached cable press in the tab to remove. Install new cluster reattach cluster cable and use ziptie if needed on the right side of the cluster to hold line in place. Reverse process to reattach all pannels.

For the 2019 mustang GT 10spd Does this follow that too? Cause I don’t have the same numbers

Hey man my mileage was 47726.0 and the new cluster was less. I changed it in forscan and it changed it to “47725” on forscan and on the cluster to “47723.4” any idea why

It's a bug. I would not worry about that small a difference.

Started increasing it by 1 mile and got it up to “47725.3” original is “47726.0”

Anyone with the 2019 mustang GT premium cluster halo lights are not as bright as the gauge lights? Or is it normal ? (ANALOG CLUSTER NOT DIGITAL)

Same thing happened to me. I just kept note the difference between the two.

[italianfroboy]

Could anyone help me with Forscan, I’m getting an error message on startup for rear belt monitor fault. I have a 2016 mustang and used a 2018 premium cluster.

 

[italianfroboy]

Also would anyone know why the tach isn’t showing rpm.

Bad cluster?

Load your as built info into the new cluster, that will get rid of the warning it may make the tack work.

So upload old parameters to the new cluster. Understood! I hope it’s not a bad cluster came off a 2018 with 36 miles on the odometer.

This. You will need to turn on the high beam indicator. I forget the address but it is listed on page one of the digital cluster change thread.
