Hi all, <p>A question for all of you whose sucessfully installed color gauge faces. After I installed the faces, the engine oil gauge (left most) and the battery gauge (right most) wouldn't return to their normal position. After warming up the car, I tried to position the needle to the middle for the oil gauge and around 14 volt for the battery gauge, which were their normal position before, but after I turn the car off, the oil gauge would drop way below zero position (below that oil thing), while battery gauge would only drop to 13 volt.<p>If I were to do it the other way around (positon the needles when the car is off), I set the oil gauge a bit below 150F and the battery gauge 8, then after warming up the car, the oil gauge would swing up to higher than 350F ( which is way too high ) while the battery gauge only around 9 volt (too low).<p>Any suggestion of what I should do before taking it to dealer?<p>Thanks in advanced and Merry Christmas!<p>Kent<br>1.8tq

You put the needles too far back on, and they are rubbing the gauge face. Pull them back out a bit, and try adjusting them with the car on at a known position.. More important to have them show correctly when the car is on, than off anyway..<p>Rich Quinlan<ul><li><a href="http://home.att.net/~richquinlan">Quinland</a></li></ul>

Hi Kent,<p>While I don't have any solution to your problem (sorry), I did want to ask you how you were able to take the needles out? Is there a special tool to "extract" them?<p>Please email me if you have an answer,<br>Thanks a lot,<br>Andrei D.
