Installed new indiglo gauges, now my temp and fuel gauges dont work...

[redeclipse97]

I don't want ot sound like a dumba$$, but I just installed a set of indiglo gauges and now my temp. and fuel gauges dont work...I haven't pulled it apart yet to look at it but would anyone know off-hand what might have caused this...

Yeah I had the same prob...
Heres what I did use to your own disregard,
1 I just cut all of the useless plastic that didnt have to be used, you make that judgement call on that one also make sure it pops around the needle that could be the problem also...
2 if you dont plan to remove them anytime soon, used double sided sticky tape, it sounds gettho but it does truely work.
3 do a half a$$ install just to check the gauges.

Oh and to be the first to say it before one of the Johns get to it, use the search function, I'm pretty sure that there have been plently of posts about this.

Good luck!

the screws that mouth the gauges into the cluster - are the ground source for the gauges. they may not be contacting well - just another thing to look at when you take it back out

I had the same problem, it turned out the Indiglo Gauge overlay was too high and was interfearing with needle movement. I cut the pieces of the overlay that were interfearing with the needles and its all good now.
