Disconnect the fuel level indicator. Install a new one in its place. When installing the sensor, perform all steps in the reverse order of removal.
Change other devices in the same manner as described. This is the entire repair of the VAZ 2110 device panel. You see, there is nothing difficult and there is no need to go to a special service center and pay money.
The assembly of the device system must be carried out in the reverse order of the disassembly procedure. When carrying out this work, you need to take into account that the nuts that secure the tachometer have a different thread.
Nuances and subtleties of do-it-yourself tuning of the instrument panel illumination of the VAZ 2110
The entire composition of devices on the panel is secured with 2 bolts and consists partly of mechanical and partly of electrical components. The electrical component of an ordinary panel is a speedometer and tachometer, but some cars from the VAZ 2110 model range already have an electrical panel .
Also, there must be indicators: coolant temperature, availability, fuel level, as well as warning lights, of which there are 12 installed on the VAZ 2110.
All device connections are stored in a printed circuit board, which is mounted on the back of the case.

Simple and fast upgrade
In principle, with your own hands you can either completely replace instrument panel of a VAZ 2110 or tuning the existing one.
One of the quite popular options is replacing light bulbs with LEDs. Moreover, there is no difficulty in this - you need to remove the light bulbs and insert LEDs in their place.
However, there is one small trick: they work well only if the polarity is observed! If the LED does not light up immediately when connected, you need to remove it, turn it 180 degrees, then reinsert it into the socket.
Even such a simple replacement will increase the brightness of the dashboard , but this is not enough, it is hardly worth completing the tuning with your own hands.

What lamps are installed and how many of them?
The VAZ instrument panel is illuminated and the status of the vehicle’s components is indicated using 12 V 1.2 W incandescent lamps, which are installed in a 2W2 socket. The lamp is easily pulled out of the socket - you just need to pull it with your fingers; it can be purchased either separately or with a socket. In total, 20 lamps are used for lighting and indication in the instrument panel for the VAZ 2110, and they are inexpensive - 5-10 rubles. (at the time of writing) depending on brand (without cartridge).

If desired, instead of incandescent lamps, you can install LED ones in the VAZ instrument panel - they are produced for the same voltage with the same standard size and can be either with or without a socket. By the way, in the latest modifications of dozens of VAZs, LED light sources have already been installed.
LED bulbs without socket and with socket for VAZ 2110
Why are LEDs better?
First of all, they have a longer service life (up to 20-30,000 hours instead of 1,000 for incandescent lamps). They are not afraid of vibrations and are 8 times more economical. But you have to pay for all this in the literal sense of the word: LED light bulbs are many times more expensive than their conventional incandescent counterparts. If you consider that there are 20 of them in the VAZ panel, the amount will be considerable.
Be careful with the generator warning lamp; based on feedback from our readers, it is better to replace it only with the same one.
Replacing warning lamps in the instrument panel
In many cars, including the VAZ 2110, warning lamps A12?1,2 are used in the instrument cluster. When replacing the lamp, do the following:
The socket together with the burnt out lamp should be turned counterclockwise all the way.
Remove the lamp socket from the instrument system.
A new lamp is installed in place of the burned out one in the reverse order. All other instrument cluster lamps are replaced using the same method.
How to remove the tidy
On a VAZ 2110, removing the dashboard from the dashboard is not difficult, and the only tools you need are a Phillips screwdriver and pliers or a wrench. With their help, we will remove the positive terminal from the battery before starting work. So, lower the steering wheel and unscrew the 4 screws that secure the decorative trim.
Releasing the decorative trim on the VAZ 2110
After this, we pull the cover towards ourselves, and it can be easily removed, hanging on the wires of the switches. To prevent the cover from getting in the way, the wires from the switches can be disconnected - they are on the connectors.

Before disconnecting the connectors, do not forget to label them so as not to mix them up during assembly!
So, now we have a tidy in front of us, which is held in place by two screws located on the sides.
The instrument panel is secured with two screws
We unscrew them and carefully remove the panel, not forgetting that it is also on the wires. In principle, the wires supplying the instrument console in the VAZ do not need to be disconnected, since their length is sufficient to replace the lamps.
The ten have long enough wires, they allow you to replace light bulbs without disconnecting the connectors
Repair of instrument panel VAZ 2110
On cars of the VAZ 2110-2112 family, the dashboard includes control lights and on-board instruments, with the help of which the driver can easily monitor the condition of the car. The following indicator lights are displayed on the instrument panel: coolant temperature, turn signals, tachometer, fuel level, speedometer, an image in the form of a gas station, indicating that it is necessary to refuel, lights for turning on the dimensions and high beams, low brake fluid level, a screen reflecting the vehicle’s mileage, emergency alarm system, Check Engine, which signals engine malfunctions, a display with a clock, an indication of a generator malfunction or battery charging, an indication that the handbrake is turned on, a low oil pressure light choke light
Classic tidy "tens"
The driver behind the wheel of the tenth VAZ model can monitor the main indicators displayed behind the steering wheel on the panel. There are pointer type control devices:
- speedometer;
- tachometer;
- fuel tank full;
- cooling water temperature values.
Apart from the differentiated values displayed on the scale, the car provides information in the form of glowing or blinking indicators, for example, high beam indicators, turn signals, possible problems with the internal combustion engine, emergency lights, handbrake, etc. If the lamps turn off spontaneously, the driver will be misled , which can lead not only to the failure of one of the components, systems or devices, but also create a terrible (emergency) situation on the road.
It is important to know that the functionality of the display on the 2110 dashboard can be tested independently by holding the reset button and turning the ignition key to the 1st position (then I release it). You can finish the check by pressing the button on the panel again.
Removal and disassembly
-it-yourself removal of the instrument
- First of all, remove the casing;
- Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the fastening bolts;
- We find and unlatch the latches. It is better to snap off the ones at the bottom first, and then push up. This way it can be easily removed;
- Before tuning, you need to remove the arrows. At first, just pull them lightly. If they don’t give in, start turning them from right to left, while slightly tightening them – they will definitely come off.

The importance of every light bulb
If one of the lamps does break, it should be replaced as soon as possible. The thing is that each light bulb signals one or another malfunction. If one of them is broken, the driver will not be able to know that, for example, he is running out of fuel. This can lead to quite unpleasant consequences.
It also happens that the light indicates a malfunction in the fuel system. This is a fairly serious problem, so it needs to be addressed urgently.
What are dashboard lights for?
VAZ 2114 is one of the highest quality, dynamic and beautiful models of the domestic automobile industry, with excellent technical characteristics. However, it also has its drawbacks, one of which is the dashboard, which is not particularly reliable and of high quality. A common problem with the dashboard is the rapid failure of the backlight lamps.
Working illumination of the dashboard of a VAZ 2114 car
The backlight bulbs provide the driver with various information that allows them to monitor the condition of the car and diagnose possible malfunctions in a timely manner. There may be several reasons for their operation:
- the battery is discharged;
- holding the handbrake;
- lack of fuel in the gas tank;
- a decrease in engine oil pressure is a reason that requires stopping the car to avoid engine damage;
- accumulation of water in the filter. Excess liquid is drained to prevent it from entering the pump;
- malfunctions in the fuel system;
- engine malfunctions.
Failure of instrument panel lamps may cause the driver to miss a breakdown or malfunction that could cause an accident. For this reason, you should not delay replacing light bulbs.
Features of the functioning of light bulbs on the dashboard
The VAZ dashboard is needed to inform the car enthusiast about any processes occurring in the car. This means that using the dashboard you can monitor the status of the car, as well as monitor your driving. In addition, it is the dashboard that is needed in order to diagnose certain malfunctions. All this means that the lights on the panel do not light up just like that, but for some specific reason.
One of the most common causes of light bulb failure is prolonged use. Another reason is problems with contacts. Almost any car part requires replacement after a certain period of time. Light bulbs are no exception. And some problems may require the help of an electrician.
Features of replacing a light bulb in the instrument panel of a VAZ 2114
There are 13 lamps in the dashboard, but not all of them can be replaced. Unfortunately, only 8 bulbs can be replaced.
Before you begin the process of replacing the lamp, you need to clean the contacts in case there are any traces of oxidation on them. Sometimes it is not the lamp that needs to be changed, but only its socket.
Before you buy new lamps for the panel, you need to calculate the total number of devices that are needed for the sensors.
Don't forget about checking. If the new lamps do not work, this means that the replacement was not carried out correctly. It is possible that the reason is that the new light bulb has some kind of defect.

If the light does not light, then the cause of the malfunction may be a malfunction of the contacts. This is a pretty serious problem. It may require the help of a qualified electrician to resolve it as quickly as possible.
Another relevant tip concerns current trends. Some car owners are not looking for standard light bulbs for their VAZ, but modernized ones. You need to be aware that retrofitted light bulbs may have some significant defects. Ultimately, this can lead to damage to the instrument panel. In order to reduce the likelihood of such an unpleasant scenario, it is best to give preference to standard lamps for model 2114.
Reason for replacement
It is obvious: the light bulb in the dashboard is changed when it burns out. This can happen either due to a sudden power surge or due to the expiration of the light bulb.
Reasons why the PP stopped working
It is its malfunction that often causes the shield to fail. The fact is that many car owners turn on various devices through the cigarette lighter, for example, a special vacuum cleaner, chargers, pumps and other devices. Due to the fact that these gadgets require high current, either the socket itself or fuse F19 often breaks, as a result of which the instrument panel on the VAZ-2110 does not work.
In addition, the cigarette lighter may become damaged if left on for too long. In this case, you can return the instrument panel to functionality by disconnecting the socket block. But it is worth saying that such manipulation will be successful only if fuse F19 is functioning. If it does burn out, it must be replaced.
In fact, there are not so many of them and the most common are:
- The easiest one is poor contact between the panel and the electronic control unit. The problem is solved by replacing the plug or simply cleaning the contacts.
- A breakdown in the instrument panel itself or malfunctions. To solve the problem, all connectors are reconnected, taking into account the correct connection diagram.
- Malfunctions of the tachometer, speedometer, fuel level controller. In this case, the cause is mechanical or electrical. To troubleshoot problems, replace regulators or check the operation of fuses.
- The illumination of the VAZ-1215 software stopped working. In this situation, it is necessary to find out the cause of the problem.
To check, you must turn on the hazard signal or turn signal. If they don't work, it means the fuse has blown. Therefore, we can conclude that a short circuit has occurred. To fix the problem, check the electrical circuit.

However, it also happens that the fuse is intact and in working condition, but the instrument panel on a VAZ-2115 car stops working. Here the reason is much more difficult to find out. The solution to the problem is to remove the instrument panel and check whether voltage is flowing from this fuse to the terminals of the white and red blocks. The white block supplies power to the speedometer, tachometer, and temperature gauge. And the red one is the fuel gauge.
If, as a result of checking, the terminals show a voltage of 12 V, then this indicates that the PCB does not work as a result of poor contact of the wire that goes to the ground of the car. If the voltage of 12 V is not reflected at the terminals, then it is necessary to disassemble the mounting block and look for the cause of the problem.
How to replace the dashboard bulbs of a VAZ 2114
Burnt out light bulbs on your dashboard are a nuisance. Without them, the driver cannot obtain all the necessary information about the condition of his car. The dashboard on the VAZ 2114 has never been reliable, so the owner of this car will sooner or later have to change one or more light bulbs in the dashboard. We will tell you below what manipulations you will need to do yourself to replace it.
ONE OR MORE LIGHTS ARE NOT BURNING
- VAZ 2114 instrument panel does not light up
- One or more warning lamps are not working.
Let's consider the first variant of malfunctions, when the backlight of the VAZ 2114 instrument panel does not work. You must begin checking the functionality of the backlight by checking the serviceability of the fuse in this circuit. This only applies when all the backlights are off.
The fuse box on this model, as well as on the VAZ 2113 and VAZ 2115, is located in the engine compartment on the driver's side. You need to remove its cover and find the fuse responsible for the backlight, this is F10. It is designed for a current of 7.5 A. If it burns out, replace it with a new one and check the operation of the backlight paws.
Further events can develop as follows: either everything works or it doesn’t. If the instrument panel backlight works, the test ends here, otherwise it is necessary to continue troubleshooting. It may be due to poor contact of the connectors or an open circuit in the power supply of the backlight lamps.
To find and eliminate these problems, you need to remember the basic concepts of the laws of electrical engineering, and have a car LED electrical circuit tester, tester or voltmeter. If there is neither one nor the other, then it is better to seek help from an auto electrician.
The situation is much simpler when one or more, but not all, backlights are off. Burnt out light bulbs are simply replaced with known good ones. From the practice of auto electricians, we can conclude that in most cases a fuse or light bulb . It rarely comes to troubleshooting using instruments, but sometimes it happens. You should be aware that if a replacement (new) fuse blows repeatedly, you should look for a short circuit in the electrical circuit.
In the second case, they do approximately the same, but take into account that there are no fuses for each indicator lamp. They try to replace the light bulb with a new one, if it doesn’t light up again, then the contacts need to be checked. As a rule, this is enough to troubleshoot problems. Otherwise, it is better to ask a specialist for help, because the culprit may be the sensor that works in conjunction with this warning lamp. Dashboard lamps

How to assemble and disassemble the panel
To reset the speedometer or fix the problem that the turn signal light on the dashboard is not blinking, it must be removed.
To this end, you should perform the following actions:
- You can remove the cover, but the board will still be locked.
- You need to take a Phillips screwdriver and use it to remove a few more bolts.
- Now you need to unlatch the latches on the panel. You should start from the bottom. If they were disconnected from the bottom side, then you can push them up. This way the fee will be removed quickly.
- The arrows will have to be removed anyway.
Note: some arrows are easy to remove, but the arrows for the gasoline quantity indicator are much more difficult to remove. To remove the arrows, you need to gently pull them.
The panel is disassembled, now we need to try to solve the problem.
Note: There are very small LEDs on the board that can also burn out. Because of them, the turn signal light may not blink, so they need to be replaced.
This requires working with a soldering iron.
But if the panel was disassembled in order to reset the speedometer readings, then:
Now it is advisable to somehow put the panel back together.
This is made even easier:
Place the board in a plastic case.
Note: It is advisable to have a clean cloth underneath to prevent the surface from being scratched.
- Now you need to screw in the bolts on the panel itself. They do not need to be completely screwed in yet, as the arrows must be put in place first.
- Before putting the hands back in place, they need to be wiped thoroughly, as fingerprints, dirt, etc. will be visible when exposed to light.
Note: the arrows need to be set approximately 3-4 mm below zero
It is also important that there is a small gap between the needles and the speedometer, otherwise they will stick
It is much easier to install, as well as remove, long arrows. To install short arrows, you need to act very carefully, as they are more delicate compared to long ones.
- Before installing the glass, it also needs to be wiped. Now snap onto the latches.
- Secure the board with bolts.
- Lastly, screw in the screws on the cover, and then put all the light bulbs in place.
Working with a panel in a car is probably the simplest thing it can be. Therefore, there is no point in going to a car service center, where the price even for such trivial work will be high.
It’s better to look through a bunch of photos and videos before you decide to do repairs and tuning of the car’s interior with your own hands, so as not to harm the car. Any instructions will help you get the job done quickly and efficiently.
Welcome! Instrument cluster - on many cars, instrument clusters differ from each other, in some not significantly, and in others it is radically changed, but the filling in almost all remains the same, they just differ in appearance and the lights and indicators are the same , but the combination is subject to deformation and can easily be damaged, and therefore, if you take some old cars, on every second car, the combination has already changed, despite this combination is a very important thing, because if something happens to the engine, then combinations You can only determine this, you can find out the speed at which the car is moving, and you can also find out how much fuel is left in the tank without looking into the tank just by looking at the instrument cluster.
Note! To remove and install the combination, you will need: A screwdriver and pliers, if you have a standard torpedo, then you will do the work quite quickly and most likely no difficulties will even arise!
When should you change the instrument cluster? If it stops working, there is no need to panic and go to the auto store for a new combination; first of all, check the fuse that goes to it and, if necessary, replace it with a new one; if it turns out that everything is fine with it, but the combination does not work at all, then we can assume that it has failed if some specific indicator in the combination has failed (Speedometer, for example, does not work), then in this case, perhaps the problem is not in the combination, but in the speed sensor, for example (Read the article: “Replacing the speed sensor with car"), if the fuel gauge does not work, then look at the fuel level sensor, in common parlance “FLS” (Read the article: “Replacing the FLS in a car”) or the wiring, and so on.
