2011 cluster upgrade

I upgraded my original instrument cluster to the productivity screen. The only thing that is not working is the compass. Does anyone know where the cluster gets the signal for the compass?

I have been looking for a productivity screen cluster for the 6.2, but I'm having no luck. Where did you find yours?

I found one on ebay for $82 bucks. Shipped it to curciutboardmedics.com and they did the info swap. Pretty easy. Oh and dont forget to change the directional pad on the left side of the steering wheel (has cruise buttons on it). You need the one that has the left and right arrows on it.

eBay is loaded with Diesel ones, but no Gas ones. I called CircuitBoardMedics and they have only Diesel ones in stock, lots too, but not Gas ones either.

Oh... yours is a 6.2 as well (I should read signature lines more closely). It looks like I have to increase the frequency of my eBay checks. There is yet hope...

Yea-i did the same thing. I of course became obsessed with doing this upgrade so i checked twice a day and one morning i found one. It is pretty cool to have and definitely changes the look of the dash that we stare at all of the time...but for $450 with swap,shipping, steering control and new dash-i i definitely could of lived without it. Still cool to have some of the features and info that i didnt have before.

Well, at least you didn't buy a new truck to get it like I did! Not really. I wanted to move from Super Cab to Super Crew and Productivity was just one of the little doo dads that the new truck had but the old did not.
I was on the list at Circuit Board Medics for a screen for my 2014, I guess they can remove me and the next guy on the list can move up a spot.
