I recently bought a 92si and....nothin freakin works...the gauge cluster won't work (the lights do)....there is a water temp gauge and a fuel gauge on the A-pillar which don't even have wires.....the blinkers don't work and there is some more stuff but that doesn't matter....alright question is

how do I get those gauges on the A-pillar workin? (how do I wire them etc)..they are stewart warner gauges if that helps

what do you think needs to be done about the gauge cluster?..what should I check for?

thanks in advance and I am sure I will have more questions soon...h:

 

did you even look at the car before buying it?

 

yes I did...I guess just not that well.....I knew the gauge cluster didn't work.....the others well I didn't know

 

ok nevermind...I am taking the A-pillar off.....the question is

where should I start with the gauge cluster?...would buying a new one be the best idea?

 

If you can get your hands on one without buying it, swap it out and see if it works.

 

well I got a power tester light....and apparently there isn't any power getting through there....BUT..the weird thing is...if I plug in everything and turn my lights on etc...they light up....idk I am so confused and I need some help

 

check your speed sensor. My cluster didn't work, I made big fuck up...when I did my swap, the plug that goes onto the evap canister is EXACTLY like the one that goes onto the top of the tranny for the speed sensor. Well except the wire colors of course but my wires had grease all over them and didn't bother to clean them off...hope this helps.

Maybe check continuity between the wires maybe broken wire

 

well the speed sensor woudn't keep ALL my gauges from working would it?......this is a fucking joke I think I made a big mistake.....and now when I turn the key to the on position I hear some type of noise like a high powered drill...

 

anyone have any idea what that noise could be?...I cranked the car and its still on....I need some help

 

Stupid Q: could the cluster prob. be b/c of a bad fuse?
As for that noise, if you hear it with the power on but engine off as well as with the engine running it could be the ABS pump building pressure... hard to say without hearing the noise.
