24722, Electro-Luminescent Gauges
Posted by HybridAutoX, Jun-20-02 11:48 AM
ok i used the search but couldnt really find anything...anyways

i installed some electro luminescent reverse gauges in my car and now all of my needles are not set correctly, i'll be cruisin in 4th gear and my speedometer will read 85 and my engine temp is hot and fuel meter is off and it looks like i redline it in 4th gear.

what i'm basically asking for is how to fix my needles so they will give me correct readings.

i didnt think that you needed to take off the needles to put on the indiglows? anyways.. i hoped you marked or at least remember where all your needles sit at idle, because if you dont, then this will be a little tough.. for the engine temp.. warm up the car and then it should sit in the middle, unless you had problems from before... for the gas, fill it up completely and then set the needle like 1/5 over full. for the tach, you should be idling, when warm between 7 and 1.. it differs with each car, hope you remembered... and for the speedo.. pace off a friend or find one of those police speed meters on the street.
