glow gauges

[tsi95]

What's up guys, i recently found out that my gauges glow, but they dont work. has anyone installed some glow gauges or know any information on how to fix the gauges.

Youre talking about the reverse glow gauges they sell on ebay right? So you mean that the backlight comes on but the accuracy is off?

[tsi95]

no, they are not reversible. they're 2 color glow gauges, and it just doesnt work at all.

i installed glow gauges in my eclipse....

you could probably stand to use a voltmeter, check and see if you're getting power to the back of the gauges, put the postive lead on the back of the power cable going to the glowing part, and the negative lead on a grounded bolt or something. if it reads 12v, then that's fine.

then check the ground, and if that doesn't work, then it might be the gauges themselves.

if you're not getting any power to the gauges at all, then try connecting it to a different source.... personally i tapped into the rheostat for my old gauge lights, and so my gauges glow when i turn on my lights. any 12v source will do, though.

if that doesn't help, sorry... i tried my best

You can also use a 9V battery to check the wires off the back of the guages...

if this is true, everybody has been complementing and flirting with a guy

[EclipseBabe95]

lol you guys, why would i pretend to be a girl? if you dont believe me, ask ohero.
as for the site, its my boyfriends, he was kind enough to put the car on his site for me, and answers peoples questions when they email - how would it sound if he was selling a car for someone else? if im not wanted, i can leave...
