‘96 x90 Gauge cluster removal?
#4
YOU HAVE THE HIGH BEAM WIRES AND LOW REVERSED ,THE 1996 FULL SCHEMATIC IS HERE.
That is not an Ebrake, wire, its 3 brake tests, brake reservoir, failure, hand brake (Erg) and ABS failure. all on one lamp. and DRL, the DRL monitors 2 things hand brake and alternator failure,
or brake differential pressure switch failure.
the DRL sees the hand brake go off and then headlamp go to DRL mode, if not the Hand brake is on the HL go to non DRL mode, so my guess is you never found the DRL module yet.
IF legal, defeat the DRL per my DRL page on subjec (fixkick.com search DRL)
you do know that the cluster lights are tested when first key on, right.? the auto self test?
starter?
no the starter switch only runs the starter solenoid, (and 1 more wire to the ecu to tell it to go to crank up mode special)
but if you watch a normal car the cluster goes dead, cranked, for more power to a weak batter and starter motor, (cranking is always best with all things, not EFI turned off)
custom wiring any car is no easy task, after all many details are hidden in harnesses, now abandoned?
Im not totally sure what your are attempting, only making the X90 run like new, out of factory using correct parts, or are you doing some modifications? from stock?
not sure at all, me.
the comment on Removal..... not sure... at all , are you trying to DELETE the cluster from the car, if yes, why do that.?
why would you delete a major function of the car, like this? this make the car fail smog, testing, no odometer, and selling car very hard if modified from stock in this way,,
are you attempting to make car offroad 100% car, IDK.
I've no idea what your end goal is, and purpose, for car. IDK

1996
does car have ABS (it was an options)
does this car have DRL, daylight Running lamps option (and DRL module is now wired wrong, seems like it did to me)
our cluster is wired like this (sidekick/tracker) X90 documents are not easy to find.

https://web.archive.org/web/201011191046...81_pdf.htm
lets look at the below link next and some clearer drawings. page 24 below PDF page.
see fuse F16 runs the cluster for power. black/white. power

see pin G09-p15 and G11-p3
this runs most of the cluster for power, 12vdc, battery power. hot , run or start, (the ignition switch does this magic cut power to the the cluster cranking) ok?
most the cluster runs off those 2 left side cluster power rails. ,all lamps and all gauges run on these 2 power rails in side the cluster.
EXCEPTIONS:
Illumination (parking +dim feed) back ground lamps, call this.
highbeam lamp (cluster) this is for sure wired to DRL if you have DRL. if not then wires to the highbeam feed.
turn signals
see page 24 (cluster page)
http://www.fixkick.com/ECU/1996/Full96%2...-power.pdf

so did you find the DRL module yet, and bypass it?
DRL page 21,. the cluster lamp drl and brake failure wiring is show here clearly.
Non DRL page I do not have schematic of non DRL, 96, but is wired much like 95
