junk yard cluster question

I am having problems with my fuel guage not working, I have changed the sender and it did not help, so my question is if I get a cluster out of a junk yard can I swap the PSOM out of my cluster into the junk yard cluster so the odometer will be right??

Make sure you get the right year group for the wiring if you want to make a straight swap. There was a major electrical change between 2001 and 2002 so I don't know how much is a direct swap unless you get a cluster from an '02-'04 truck. Also, the cluster changed as well from all 4 small gages on the left to 2 small gages on each side.

I assume you already checked but I'll ask anyway. Did you check your wires and grounds?

yes, new sender, even when unpluged the gauge sits at half until the key is turned off.
