1. Disconnect the battery: Before starting any work, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to avoid any electrical accidents.
2. Remove the trim panels: Start by removing the trim panels around the dashboard, including the steering wheel covers, instrument cluster trim, and center console trim. Use a plastic pry tool or a flathead screwdriver to gently pry them off.
3. Remove the instrument cluster: Next, remove the instrument cluster by unscrewing the mounting screws and carefully pulling it out. Disconnect any electrical connectors at the back of the cluster.
4. Remove the glove box: Open the glove box and locate the screws holding it in place. Remove these screws and the glove box will come out.
5. Remove the center console: Remove the center console by unscrewing the mounting screws and lifting it out. Disconnect any electrical connectors underneath.
6. Remove the dashboard: Now, you can start removing the dashboard. There will be several screws and bolts holding it in place, located around the edges and behind the components you have already removed. Carefully unscrew or unbolt these fasteners.
7. Disconnect electrical connectors: As you remove the dashboard, disconnect any electrical connectors that you come across. Make sure to label these connectors to avoid confusion when reconnecting them.
8. Remove the dashboard: Once all the screws, bolts, and connectors are disconnected, you can carefully lift and remove the dashboard.
Remember to take your time and work carefully to avoid damaging any components or connectors. It may be helpful to refer to a service manual or guide specific to your Peugeot Partner for detailed instructions and diagrams.
