Ecksef 129 Posted May 24, 2014 Howdy all.. Has anyone here successfully ran an E series cluster in an X series? I know it's been done before, with the easiest way being to make an 'adaptor'. I pulled internal plugs from shitty XF cluster, and used the plugs and about 20cm of wire from an XH. I've matched up wires as best as I can using E series and XF diagrams but I just can't get it to work. I know it's been done, just wondering if someone can help me with this one? TIA, Cheers, -Nate.

nos2 751 Posted May 24, 2014 I have a friend who has grafted a au cluster into a XC.. Can get photos if you like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecksef 129 Posted May 24, 2014 That'd be cool as fuck. I want to run a high series (mont/lane) EF EL cluster. The wiring is just giving me the shits! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ando81 2,949 Posted May 24, 2014 I saw a fella from xfalcon "Evilxf" I think his name was. Real name Damian. He put an au dash pod and cluster in his project xf and it looked sweet. Maybe you could try to contact him for some help mate. 1 slydog reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIA, Cheers, -Nate. i've done it, the fuel guage is usually the only thing that wont work without mods.(providing you have wired it correctly) i'm pretty sure i still have a full conversion stored at My mates place that i'd sell. its the EA S pack cluster(or XG S pack) with XG mount, facia and adaptor loom.(i modded the Fuel guage so its plug and play into XF non ghia dash) what issues do you have? i put diagrams on one of the forums once link here to one thread http://www.xfalcon.com/forums/index.php?/topic/39634-ed-fairmont-instrument-cluster-into-xf/ i dont check in the forums that often lately, but will reply when i get time. 3 XTREME KARTS XF, slydog and Jonathan Mark Davidson reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecksef 129 Posted May 26, 2014 Followed yours relatively closely, however early e series wiring is different to EF EL wiring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deankxf 20,292 Posted May 26, 2014 Followed yours relatively closely, however early e series wiring is different to EF EL wiring. you might be able to find wiring diagrams on fordmods forum but i have a feeling they weren't 100% when i did mine anyway. i have a feeling the EF/EL use a different setup entirely and rely on the ECU? (From what i was told once... i never needed to know so didnt care to check.) if you are using an EF loom? why not consider an XH cluster and surround... assuming it still fits the XF dash?

Ecksef 129 Posted May 26, 2014 Have EF cluster and XG surround and XH mount. Want to use high series cluster with oil/volts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted May 26, 2014 I thought EF/EL ran off the ECU too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecksef 129 Posted May 26, 2014 I'm putting in an au 4.0 with ECU, so what sender wires need to be run to dash will be ran through when I pull the dash out. It's just stuff like illumination, signals etc. I'm not expecting things like fuel, speed and tacho to work until the ECU is setup and appropriate wires are ran through Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
