you didn't happen to touch or move them when you installed your guages did you?

it may cost a pretty penny at Honda, maybe 100+

One time I was trying to replace the LED light for my gas light... While back there I moved my gas guage a little... Before it didn't really work... and now it does... so I dont think that's the problem. Did you double check that you plugged everything back in?

hm......the only problem can be that the plug ins arent plugged in correctly. The gas and temp gauge share the same plug in, so check that.

most people who break off the needles, end up living w/o the guage, or replacing the cluster. You can also buy replacement temp/gas guages to put into your cluster, but they run about $90 each new.

Is it hard to install jsut the gas or temp guage cuz i figured out i def broke the gas one and is it possible that the temp isnt working just cuz the gas is broke if they run off the same plug..
