In detail: do-it-yourself business gazelle instrument panel repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.
Greetings to all! I haven't written anything for a long time, and there was no time either. a lot of work. Of course, there were some surprises for the new year from my swallow. It all started with the fact that two weeks before the new year, the backlight bulbs gradually began to burn out on my instrument cluster. The last straw of my patience was when 12/30/2014. after ordering, I arrived home and at the entrance to the house, the backlight of the odometer lcd display burns out. I parked the car and went to get ready for the holidays. After the new year, I don’t remember the second, or the third of January, I went to the car, took off the instrument cluster and returned home. Without hesitation, he dismembered it into whatever is possible =)) Took off the dials
Took off LCD odometer and clock displays
This is what this miracle consists of
And here is an idiotic color filter. Always pissed me off. I don’t know why, but I don’t like the green backlight
Cutting out the inside in the case, it remains to pick up the board
I rummaged for a long time in my LED wealth, picking up a board for the LCD display case, but not picking up anything suitable I decided to make it out of a circuit board, because draw, poison, tinker, etc. was reluctant and long. I made these blanks from the assembly
I soldered the LEDs without hesitation
I tried on how it would shine in the case, but without this green filter. Looks gorgeous =)
The second did the same as the first and, as they say, put it all back on the board by connecting it all through the LED driver =)
I thought to end this, but since I had already sorted everything out, I went on. I peeled off the left and right light filter, and borrowed it from my wife using nail polish remover, removed the green plaque and glued it back =)
Video (click to play).
Further, I cut out two boards from the circuit board under the instrument cluster housing
I soldered the LEDs. I did the same with the right one, but forgot to take a picture of it. there was more fuss with her. On the right side, I implemented backlighting up to 3000 rpm white, from 3000 to 4000 rpm yellow, and then everything is red =)
For some reason I can’t post more pictures, I don’t know why. Read on for the sequel!
How to wind up a speedometer (mileage) in a Gazelle-
I also have the arrows on the accumulator and the oil pressure ignited. sorted out. the oil arrow was put in place and still it again points in the other direction
Hello, I have a gazelle business device all arrows do not robots the reason you know
oil and temperature I can not find the wires, what to do tell me, Volga 3110
hello friends, this is the case, I put the 402 engine on, I don’t know how to bring the wires to the sensors, there was an engine injector earlier,
I changed the speedometer because of the odometer on my 3110 twice in 12 years and the pressure did not fly off, but I had to replace the fuel gauge. Interestingly, I bought almost the same in the store, but did not fit at all)) I had to stir up the old and new hybrid) and adjust the arrow by adding gasoline to the tank) The store said that there are at least two varieties of this device.
The instrument cluster of a Gazelle car can be two types: old and new, electronic... Like most other cars, it includes four devices (speedometer, tachometer, coolant temperature gauge, fuel gauge) and warning lamps, there are twelve of them. A printed circuit board is installed on the inside of the case, the leads of which go to two plugs: white (X1) and red (X2).
Options for a complete refusal in the operation of the instrument cluster of a Gazelle car, two: the first option, when the arrows of all devices are at zero and do not react to the turn of the key in the ignition lock; the second option, when the arrows of the instruments do not lie at zero, but, on the contrary, go off scale. Of course, the ideal option would be to check a non-working instrument cluster at the stand, but it can only be found in a specialized workshop, of which there are not so many in the vast territory of Russia.
If instrument arrows are at zero, what can the driver do in this situation? Most likely, in this case, the contact in the circuit from the storage battery to the terminal "87" of the ignition switch unloading relay is broken. Therefore, he will have to check the safety of the fuses, the condition of the pads included in this electrical circuit and the connection of the instrument cluster to ground. On the white block (X1) of the instrument panel, the ground wire fits to 1 plug, and on the red block (X2), the ground wire fits to the 3 plug.
If the above actions did not give any result, then there are again two exits: either, you will have to replace the instrument cluster by purchasing a new one; or try to independently check the printed circuit board for breaks. True, the cost of a new instrument cluster is quite high, more than 10 thousand rubles. So you can try to restore it, although the manufacturer believes that the instrument cluster cannot be repaired. Often peeling off the tracks of the circuit board occurs due to strong pressure on the connector of the shoe during assembly. Therefore, the breaks in the tracks, you can try to solder in order to restore the operability of the instrument panel.
The reason for the off-scale devices may be a malfunction in the controller of the electronic control unit Mikas 10.3, this malfunction often occurs in the cold season. In this case, it is necessary to carry out diagnostics and the error that has occurred, erase it by updating the software to a more recent serial version. Also, a similar malfunction may appear after the controller is flashed.
To control the systems, the GAZ car is equipped with a combination of instruments in which control devices are installed: voltage indicator, tachometer, speedometer, engine temperature indicator, oil pressure indicator, fuel level indicator and warning lights. The connection of the contacts of the instrument cluster is shown in the electrical diagrams below, and the location of the electrical connectors can be seen in the photographs. The information is provided as a guide to self-troubleshooting and do-it-yourself instrument panel replacement.

The pin assignment of instrument combinations of the 38.3801 family in various versions is shown in the table:
Many car owners of a gazelle or Volga car with an old-style dashboard tend to change it to a new-style dashboard, in which most of the indicators are replaced with modern LED ones, and such a dashboard looks much prettier and brighter.
So, to remove the instrument cluster, first remove the lining by unscrewing the four screws. Then remove the four screws securing the combination; disconnect the electrical connectors and remove the instrument cluster. Repair the instrument cluster by block replacement of faulty instruments. To replace devices, remove the protective glass and on the reverse side unscrew the fastening nuts of the faulty device.
The reason why many drivers install the Gazelle Business dashboard is that it looks better. The second reason why it is worth buying this particular version of the panel is the functionality and the increased number of opportunities to monitor the performance of the car.
The euro-type panel has 2 large dials - a speedometer and a tachometer, as well as 2 small ones, which show the amount of gasoline and the temperature of the coolant. The rest of the information about the state of the nodes and the errors that have occurred is displayed using the lit indicators in the middle of the panel. The simpler design significantly relieves the driver's attention.
Disconnect the wire from the negative terminal on the vehicle battery. Unscrew the mounting screws and remove the A-pillar trim. Gently pull out the extension, first prying it off with a thin screwdriver. Remove the fuse block cover and unscrew the screws securing the blocks. Then carefully pull out the fuse boxes, making sure that the connector blocks come out of the dashboard. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the two self-tapping screws located in the antenna visor. After that, remove the two plugs that are under the petals of the wipers and turn signals, and remove the visor. The Gazelle instrument panel itself is supported by 4 self-tapping screws.
Unscrew the screws and pull out the panel. To remove the shield, remove the four plugs.
Carefully remove the steering column by removing the dashboard amplifier and steering column shrouds. Disconnect the return spring. Then remove the side upholstery and hoses of the pipes.
Following this, remove the plastic fastening clamps, and then - the wiring harnesses. With a little effort, pull the Gazelle dashboard towards you. The task was solved: the instrument panel was dismantled.
Remove all fastening screws and bolts very carefully, because otherwise, if you apply more force than necessary, you can damage the dashboard, which will ruin its appearance.
When dismantling the Gazelle instrument panel, remember (or better photograph) the procedure for connecting the wires to the switches. If the wiring is incorrectly connected, the vehicle will not function correctly. The correctness of the wiring connection depends, for example, on the accuracy of the instrument readings and other equally important parameters.

Is it worth installing a new Gazelle dashboard in the car, or is the old panel quite suitable for use? The question is quite common, especially for those drivers who have had the opportunity to update their car a little. It is worth installing a new thing, but how much it will cost is another question.
Classic Gazelle dashboard
The dashboard performs one function - information. In a small area in the torpedo of the car, all the devices with indicators of the car's operation are located, this is both good and not very good. While the driver is looking for an indicator, an indicator of revolutions, he is distracted from the road, creating conditions for an emergency. Nevertheless, the majority of Gazelle users eventually get used to the appearance of the panel and already intuitively inspect one or another part of it to obtain information.
The standard panel on most modifications of the Gazelle looks like 3-5 round dials surrounded by several signaling devices. The main gauges - the speedometer and tachometer are large.
The speedometer is always located in the center, since this is the main device that the driver is guided by. The three large devices most often include a coolant temperature sensor. The rest of the dials are either the amount of gasoline, or the battery charge, less often the amount of oil. All the indicators that the driver needs can also look like warning lights. Their indicators light up from time to time. The devices are placed compactly, they do not interfere with each other.
The reason many drivers install the Business Gazelle dashboard is simple - it looks better. The second reason why it is worth buying this particular version of the panel is the functionality and the increased number of opportunities to monitor the performance of the car.

The downside of such a panel is that on most Gazelles you will have to sweat a little when connecting. The pinout diagram of the device is included in the kit, so there will be problems with the connection if you have not encountered such work before. You will also have to add several terminals, and also change several contacts so that all devices and sensors work correctly.
