Replace Fuel Gauge in 1996 Volvo 960

I have a 1996 Volvo 960 has a fuel gauge in it that is very erratic.  The fuel gauge will show the tank is full, and if I knock on the instrument cluster it will go down to the actual level (at least I think it is the actual level). My friends at Volvtech sold me an instrument cluster from a junked 960.  The cluster had 30,000 more miles on it than my cars odometer, so I wanted to replace only the fuel gauge.  It was actually pretty easy, so here are the steps I took.


  1. I removed nine screws from the back of the instrument cluster to separate the instruments from the cover.
  2. I removed the three screws on the right hand side that holds the fuel gauge onto the board, and it comes right out.
  3. Reverse the order to put it back together.
Good luck!
