Re: '93 90 instrument cluster removal



Shouldn't be a problem disconnecting that fuse connector. I took
my lower dash apart to check the radiator fan relay and decided
to take that apart just to see if anything would blow (made sure
I wasn't in front of the airbag), nothing happened. Put it back
together and everything is fine. Airbag light still shuts off after
about 10 seconds, just like it did before I messed with the
connector.
