Heater Control Bulbs (Hi Series - with Climate Control) |
The High Series Scorpio bezel is different. Instead
of a blower switch mounted in the dash, the Climate Control is a single unit
which incorporates the blower controls and the side temperature displays. The
bezel must be unclipped from the dash to gain access to the bulbs - there are
three.
If there are no other bulbs to change in the instrument panel, then the CC
control bezel can be removed on its own leaving the fascia undisturbed - but
great care must be taken not to scratch the 'wood' or surround while releasing
the bezel.
|
There are no screws in the front of the CC bezel as there are
above. The bezel locking tabs are above and below the Recirc and A/C buttons.
Use a flat instrument to press down into the locking tabs, while prising the
bezel outward.
Once the bezel is free, carefully remove the ribbon connector and go to 7 below.
|
 |
Remove the Fascia |
If there are other bulbs to be changed as well, it may be easier to remove the
fascia, leaving the CC bezel in place.
1. Remove the lower driver's fascia panel by removing the screws shown.
Detach the trip computer multiplug connector if fitted, and the data link
connector. This is only to prevent damage by straining these connections.
It is not necessary to disconnect the hood release cable. |
 |
| 2 Pull off the heater control knobs. (Note: low series bezel
shown) |
|
3 Remove the radio/cassette unit. Make sure you have the KeyCodes!
|
4 Detach the instrument panel fascia (six screws).
Lower the steering column and draw it forward on the reach/rake adjustment.
Although the steering column shroud is shown removed, in practice this is not
necessary exercising care and using the steering on lowest/furthest rake/reach.
|
 |
5. Disconnect the clock multiplug.
Ease the instrument panel facia forwards to disconnect the multiplug. |
 |

Instrument Cluster
Now the fascia is off, this is the time to change the bubs in the instrument
cluster! |
| 1. Remove the four screws shown. |
 |
2. Ease the cluster forwards and remove the two multiplugs from
the rear.
NOTE - DO NOT PLACE THE CLUSTER LENS DOWNWARD -
keep it upright |
 |
3. Keeping it upright, exchange the bulbs in the back of the
cluster. Two types of bulbs are shown fitted here:
Larger bulb Finis 6 329 989 (4 off)
Smaller bulb Finis 7 096 694 (6 off) |
 |
Clock |
|
There is a light in the clock, too. Surprising, with all the electronics,
including ground-breaking multiplex systems, that Ford should choose an analog
clock, but it keeps very good time. The bulb is in the rear of the clock and you
can change it now that the fascia is off.
