This last week I took the SSR on a cruise from Fort Worth to Mpls, MN. After 900 miles I noticed the traffic was passing me like I was standing still. My Speedometer was sitting on 75 mph. I thought , boy did speed rules change in Minnesota !..
After about 30 minutes of watching the traffic fly past me. I took a look at my Garmin speed readout. It showed 55mph !! I decided to push the speed on the Speedometer up to about 90mph.. The Gps said 70... Finally the needle on the regular Speedometer dropped to 0 and stayed there.
Brought the SSR into a large MPLS dealership on tuesday and they said "No Problem" The cluster will have to be changed out. Left the SSR and came back on Weds afternoon. I found out the mechanic had worked on getting the dash off for almost 8hrs and could not figure out how to get it off. He had page after page of instructions, but said it did not even come close to the dash that was in the SSR.
I finally got on his computer and brought up the SSR site and did a search on DASH REMOVAL. Printed out the pictures and instructions and handed it to the Service manager. He went over to the SSR and in 15 minutes the dash was out .
It did not stop there.. 3 days later and 3 clusters in and out of the dash. I finally had a speedometer, but the DIC and Lights where all screwed up. I drove back to Fort Worth and brought it to my dealership here. It has been two days and 2 more clusters and it is still in the shop not working..
If you have a Speedometer go out, it would be a good Idea to print out the instructions for the mechanic, cause they have no clue on how to do it..
