PostSubject: Gauge cluster swap   Sat Jan 23, 2010 7:39 pm

Hey guys I have an 88 Civc hatchback and I just swapped the regular gauge cluster with a Si cluster that has the tach. I hooked it up and now the fuel gauge doesnt work. I also put aftermarket indiglo gauges in, so i duno if i messed anything up. But i also hooked up my old cluster and the fuel gauge went down when I turned on my car. I did have a full tank when I did this and I didnt have to remove the needles to install the aftermarket gauges. Anybody got any ideas on what happenned?

Did you have to do anything with the original wiring? cause what it sounds like from an electronical stand point, is that if you had to disconect the wiring from the fuel gauge, when you put them back in you might have switched the + and - and that will cause the meeter to reverse how it reads.
Hope this helps!
