QuestionQUESTION: I changed a cluster instrument from the originl which stopped working by a second hard one but same model Audi A
model 1998. Now I can not find the lead cables for temperature gauge, fuel gauge, and cable to take to oil pressure switch. And all lights of temperature, fuel, oil,
signal indicators are just flashing continuous.
ANSWER: If you are going to change the instrument cluster, make sure that the part number on the cluster is the same. There are many different types. ALso the plugs are color coded, and are right be hind the cluster so I'm not sure what you mean for the leads for the different gauges; they are all part of the main plugs... Let me know if all the plugs are connected, I believe there will be a grey, a yellow and blue plug. Jan

QUESTION: I got the answer but I'm not clear what I want to know is that I can not Identify the lead cables from the same plugs on the cluster please help me.
AnswerI have asked you now three times to tell me if the part number on the clusters are the same. You should be able to find a VDO part number. In order to be able to exchange these clusters, you have to have the same part number, since in some clusters, the warning light layout is different. I am not sure of the wire identification in the colored plugs, but I would not take those wires out and reposition them since that will make things very difficult for troubleshooting later. Jan
