Zinger Instrument Cluster Gauge Stepper Motor Repair Kit X27 168 Fits 03-06 GM Chevy Silverados Tahoes Yukons(7Motors+36Led Light Bulbs+Soldering Iron+Solder Sucker+Remove Tool+Flux Rosin Core)

You should know how.to be gentle.and solder beforehand, but saved me 150+ for a rebuild, works great. Make sure you know where your gauges (needles) rest on off so ypu may reset them the leds are also kind of lousy they have hot spots that are hard to spread

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Price… u cannot ask for a better deal!!

Excellent!!

I installed these stepper motors and clear LEDs on a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado. It took me about 1.5 hours to replace the six (6) motors and eight (8) LEDs. Here are a few notes to make the job go quicker and end up with a better result:1. Solder Iron temperature: Set it to about 260 deg C (500F). Set the temperature just at the point the included solder starts to melt and flow.2. Heat on the board: Do not hold the soldering iron on the board for more than about five (5) to eight (8) seconds - anything more might damage the very small pad for the stepper motors. Use the provided solder sucker to remove the molten solder.3. Determining LED orientation: The longer lead of the LED is the anode (+) and the shorter lead is the cathode (-). For the 2005 SIlverado, Pin A11 (this is the pin on the top row, second from the left side when looking at the back of the board) is the positive illumination voltage from the vehicle. The anode (longer lead of LED) will need to be connected to this circuit. Checking continuity from the A11 pin to each of the backlight bulb pads will help in determining which pad the anode should be solder.4. LED lens: There is a great deal of light emitted from the top of the LED which causes a bright spot behind the gauges. Using some white paint on the curved lens of the LEDs made the LED's output very close to the light provided be the incandescent bulbs.This is a relatively easy project to do, provided you have a little experience with electronics and soldering. As others have commented, there are several very good YouTube videos that I would recommend you view before you start, just to get some background on what is involved.Doing this job yourself will save you between a hundred or two hundred dollars!

Good product

My 2500 HD Silverado has just under 150K miles on it and as predicted the stepper motors began falling. First the speedometer, which is bearable, but the the fuel gauge which is unacceptable for a diesel truck with a 24 gallon tank. I chose the Zinger repair kit because it was the most purchased kit with the best reviews. It also had 7 motors which I needed as my truck has a transmission temperature gauge. This kit has everything needed to replace all of the stepper motors and panel lights. You can get as creative as you want with the lights as they provide plenty of LEDs and many colors. Changing the LEDs is the only tricky part as the circuit board doesn’t identify the positive and negative port. The positive lead on the bulb is the longer of the two but they need to be shortened for installation. I chose not to replace mine as none were out. Soldering is a very simple skill and you need not fear it. However you do need to fear the soldering iron. It is unforgiving and I have a new scar on my finger to remind me of my experience.This is a nice kit with the best motors available and the price is great.

Stepper motors and LEDs work greatSolder remover and iron work perfectly

Works great. Stepper motors fixed the problem. LEDs were great until I somehow blew an irreparable circuit in the circuit board when I was finishing the install. Stepper motors still work but no backlighting. Would recommend with the caution of resisting the urge to update the backlighting if all yours work. Only item I would change is the solder sucker. It doesn't work. I used solder wick and that worked great.
