i took out the gauges in my cluster (EA Falcon) took the needles off, and scanned them in to make custom gauges, like some people have with EF's and stuff. put it all back together, and now my fuel and temp gauges don't work. help!!!

Do they move when you blow on them, if not they're to tight. Seriously, they're feather light.

It could also be a wiring issue, check all you're plugs into the cluster.

Is often the screw(s) at the back of the gauge to the PCB- if they are loose they dont connect properlyl.
