hogala Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 The inside of the instrument cluster plastic is dirty over the speedometer. It's distracting, not to mention ugly and annoying. I need help getting to the inside of that plastic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOEHIO Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 OMG, how in the world did you manage that? Have no idea how to get it apart, why not try googling it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWRBB Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 You need to take the cluster out. I've never done it in an Edge, but I've done it on numerous other Fords. Remove whatever is required (might want to pick up a service manual or DVD) until you can access the screws for the gauge cluster. Pull the cluster forward and unhook the plugs from the back. Once it's out of the car, you can take it apart and clean the plastic lens. (1st post here ever!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOEHIO Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 I did this on a Oldsmobile I had centuries ago, and waxed the plastic - helped remove minor scratches & blemishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogala Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Not sure what it was, but the plastic ended up being dirty on the outside, not the inside. Couldn't feel it when I ran my finger over it though. Took some goo gone, a lot of elbow grease and about a day to get it off, but it's gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOEHIO Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 Glad your problem is solved, now If I could get the sensors on my wife's MKS fixed (post in lounge). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
