I installed a set of gauges on my 96 accord and they dont work. The fuel gauge goes straight to full.The speedo rests at zero but when you start the car it jumps up to 30mph and proceeds to work from there.The tach moves very lazily between 2 and 4k rpm. The temp gauge doesnt move at all.I dont know what else to do? Someone please HELPP!!!!!!!

 

Didi you connect them correctly? Check it again.

 

Yes,there are only 3 plugs and they do not interchange

 

check the connections on the harnesses.
push in all the wires into the harness a bit.
reset your ECU by disconnecting the negative power for 1 min or so, and see if it still does it.

if it's not the ECU, then it's the cluster gauge problem.

 

Ummm, ok....
What kind of gauges??
Stock gauges from the same year and model car??
sounds like it's hooked up wrong, or it's the wrong unit...
where did u get it?

 

Most likely a gauge cluster problem. I had the same thing on my civic when I swapped out my stock one for one with a tach.

 

i can prolly help you with the speedo and the fuel ...full your tank up remove you fuel needle and turn your car on and wait a few sec and replace it at the full mark. The speedo remove the needle turn the ignition on your guage sensor thingy should be set at "0" then . Replace the needle at the "0" mark try the same for tach and your temp needle might be set in to tight

 

kinda off topic... but I wanna change the guages on my '97 CL and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to get to the panel to change them out, and all the steps neccesary to fully swap um out
