It's called a "fuse" and a pack of 6 costs a few bucks.

Yes, you could change out the whole cluster, but since you don't know what the problem is, that's no more likely to fix it than anything else, including a fuse.

Diagnosis first; replacement LAST.

So you have the standard cluster that does not have a Tachometer and want to switch it.

The thing being is you would need to have the cluster reprogrammed for your truck. The PATS info is in the HEC, which is part of the circuit board, and that is a trip to the dealer.

So the answer is yes, but it will cost. Your dealer might use a cluster you brought in, some won't do it with used parts. You would have to ask the Ford dealer you use if they would do this.

The cluster new is pricey, so that would only add to the bill.
