Default Changed my speedometer but now my fuel and temperature gauge dont work

Hello everyone like the title says I have an 1994 Honda accord ex 2.2l vtec. Okay so today I took out my cluster because all my gauges were working except my speedometer.. So I replaced the little motherboard thing in the back and put the car back together and low and behold my speedometer works but now my temparture and gas gauge stopped working. The temperature isn't reading anything and the gas says my tank is way above full.. (Which its not) so anybody have any suggestions? Thank you.

If you removed/unscrewed/tightened the screws for the fuel gauge you have broken the sender wire. There are plastic nuts that the screws thread into, but they will spin. One of these nuts has the thin stranded wire for the sensor. You will need to pull the cluster back out and have the broken strand soldered back on. Most likely need to attach an additional strand to properly attach the sensor wire.

Didn't think the Temp gauge was the same but it might be.
