In general, the stove had been asking for a long time, howling on the waves, squealing on the bumps, and then one day it started howling all the time... it was decided to change it myself (the toad would strangle 7 thousand to give for a replacement) plus make a noise on the engine shield... I decided to try to film the whole thing, climbing a bunch of videos and I couldn't find any data on the forums. The biggest problem was that it was very difficult to find a garage for such a crocodile, so having stocked up on a 220V heater, I went to open it with spare parts to replace the stove motor... I also purchased: 4 sheets of STP AERO PREMIUM (2.5 was enough) 2 sheets of BIPLAST A 15 (1 was enough ,5)
Below are pictures of the bolt positions! Attention, you will need to remove: - Brand from the battery - side pillars - plastic sheets with places for standard speakers - side panel covers - dashboard - middle part (xs as the name) between 4.5 and 6.7 - lower glove compartment - right cup holder - pry off a plastic screwdriver under the windshield (what’s the name)…
If everything worked out, move on, open the hood and look
Unscrew it, go to the salon, the panel should be loose. You need to unscrew the heater radiator pipes in the salon.
Removing the instrument panel is necessary to remove and repair the interior heater, as well as for other repair work.
The work of removing and installing an old-style instrument panel (before 2003) is shown.
The new panel is removed and installed in almost the same way, the difference lies in the location and number of wires and air ducts of the heating and ventilation system.
The panel must be removed with an assistant, since the instrument panel is quite heavy.
1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the three self-tapping screws securing the upholstery
2. Remove the windshield pillar trim.
3. Remove the steering column.
5. Disconnect the connectors from the switch for the cabin lights and the rear fog lamp.
6. Disconnect the plug block from the headlight electric corrector.
7. Using keys “7” and “8”, unscrew the bolt securing the air damper control cable.
8. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the screw securing the cable sheath and disconnect the cable from the carburetor.
9. Disconnect the hazard warning switch connector.
Panel purpose
The main purpose of the instrument panel is to inform the driver about the current state of the car. On the Gazelle, all instruments and indicators are located on a small area of the torpedo. Drivers get used to this arrangement of instruments.
The old-style instrument panel on the Gazelle contains from 3 to 5 round dials, which are surrounded by different indicators. The largest dials are the tachometer and speedometer. The main instrument is the speedometer, so it is always located in the center.
The third largest device is the coolant temperature gauge. In addition, the dashboard contains dials for charging the battery and the amount of gasoline. Less commonly, an oil dial is present.

When replacing the instrument cluster, the electronics are not affected, but problems occur with them. The problem is solved by replacing the fuses and updating the wiring.
Detailed description of icons
Details about instrument combinations, decoding of symbols and pictograms are described in the GAZelle operating instructions.
The panel is a combination of instruments with sound and signal indication. The main meters that the driver focuses on are the speedometer and tachometer, located on either side of the signal sensors. The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle. Its scale ranges from 0 to 200 km/h. The tachometer shows the crankshaft rotation speed of the power unit per minute with a scale of 0-6.
On the left side of the speedometer there is a device that determines the amount of fuel in the fuel tank. Nearby is the “Reset” button, when clicked, the daily mileage readings are reset to zero. Mileage parameters can be read on the digital odometer, with the upper numbers indicating the total value, the lower ones indicating the daily value.
To the right of the tachometer is the coolant temperature indicator. The arrow moving into the red sector means the engine is overheating. The motor runs until the alarm high temperature signal is triggered.
In the lower right corner there is a “Mode” button that turns on the ignition. Signal sensors are installed in the center of the panel.
- STOP indicator, when activated, further movement is prohibited until the problems in the car are resolved;
- indicator of lack of battery charging, which operates when the ignition is turned on until the engine starts;
- indicator of low oil pressure in the engine;
- minimum fluid level sensor in the brake system hydraulic drive reservoir;
- engaging the parking brake.
- left and right direction indicators;
- side light switch;
- Low beam headlight switch indicator.
Sensors flashing orange are responsible for turning on the rear fog lights, as well as for malfunctions of the anti-lock braking system and engine control mechanism. The high beam switch is blue.
In addition to the color display, an audible warning in the form of a characteristic signal has been developed on the instrument panel. It occurs in the following cases:
- when the fuel level drops to a minimum;
- when the engine temperature rises to 105° or more;
- when the handbrake is released and the car is moving at a speed of 2 km/h.
The disadvantage of the new panel is that it is difficult to install. The problem is solved this way: the pinout diagram is included in the package, you just need to add a few terminals, change the contacts so that all systems and components work correctly, connect LED lighting inside the devices and around the perimeter of the panel for better visualization.
Possible problems
Even if you change the panel to a Gazelle, you won’t be able to get rid of all the problems. Quite often problems occur after replacement. Here are the most common ones:
- individual sensors or the entire panel stops working;
- instrument readings “freeze”;
- The sensors lie, the indicators are incorrect.
Most drivers panic and then take the panel apart, which only makes things worse. Here are some solutions for most panels:
- The first thing you should always do if such devices malfunction is to check the wire contacts. A break or breakdown can cause a malfunction. You should also inspect the food.
Pinout and instrument cluster on the Gazelle panel
Since the electronic system is not improved by replacing the panel, and the devices are more demanding, problems occur with the electronics. Replacing the wiring and fuses most often solves the problem. Generally, reviews about the operation of the instrument panel are favorable, but on some older car models there are a number of problems that can only be solved by installing original instruments.
