Hey guys did a carb swap, now i drive with the stupied SES light on all day long, and it does annoy the hell out of me... How do I pull it out, I got a 89 Firebird...

 

correct me if im wrong, but if u do a carb swap, cant u remove the ECM as well?

 

Yes if u hot wire the fuelpump, and bypass the VATs i didnt do that.. Left the ecu in so i wouldnt have to worry about messing with that junk, thus SES light pops on SAYING HEY WTF WHY CANT I CONTROL ANYTHING!?!?!

 

just pull out the gage cluster and pull the bulb, its the easiest way and u don't have to mess with rewiring anything.

 

ok i got that, but is pulling the cluster hard? can a drunk monkey do it, lol

 

i don't know how it work on a bird, but on my camaro is was cake. i reccommend going and getting a haynes or chilton manual then just following their directions. thats what i did and it took about an hour to get it apart, replace a couple bulbs, then another half hour to put it back together

 

Remove the 8 torx screws of the cluster. Use needle nose pliers to pull the bulb straight out. Replace trim with said screws. Enjoy!

--you said you replaced the bulbs..do you rember what size they are..i will pick some up at work so i can do mine...thanks...

 

the bulbs used in the instrument panel are 194 wedge base, im not sure, but i think the highbeam indicator uses a diff type

 

Yeah the firebird dash clusters are pretty easy to pull out. Pull the dash pad, drop the driverside kick panel (holds the bottom of the gauge bezel to the dash), and then just take all the screws out of the bezel pull it off and the rest is simple.

The SES light just screws into the back of the cluster on a twist type connector. I took them all off once when I put my homemade white faces on and I pull the orange boots off all the bulbs...

Headlights and turns are different than other cluster lights I think.
