I just bought this van and found the instrument cluster is dancing around, so I took out the cluster and then reinstalled. It now it drains the battery so fast it's fricken unreal. Now you can't tell me I'm the only one that's complained about it so far.

Update from Nov 11, 2018: So after doing some research I have discovered that the primary issue is the solder on the cluster board needs to be redone as it has split over time.

Windstar LE 3.6L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 170,000 miles

Instrument gauges appeared possessed -acting like windshield wipers on a high setting. A slap on the top of the dashboard sometimes corrected problem temporary. Dealership would replace it for $500 I replaced the instrument cluster with a used one ( $75.00). Cleared the problem for about a year then the problem came back.. not sure but it must be a computer issue???????

Windstar V6

The only thing I can say is I don't know why one day alll of my gauge's starting with my RPM gauge went "Kokomo LOCA". They straitened back up for a week or 2 but my RPM gauge had gotten stuck down in my transition gage spot didn't do anything to damage it I could still move all the gears. But when it finally desided to pop back up it broke the tip of the RPM gage off it started to go "4loco" again than it fell back down in the transition gear spot nothing's effecting my transition #Ijustwannatysonmyvan I love her but but she's acting like a jip right now
