Default 99-00 Si cluster into 96-98 ek

Hey guys, I just ran into some problem with my si cluster. When I plug the si cluster into my car, the temp and gas gauge doesnt work. Can you guys help me out? Thanks

drounding or grounding? I mean shouldn't the 99-00 si cluster be a plug and play into a 96-98 ek hatch? Both of my gas and temp arent working. The Rpm gauge and mph is fine though.

EDIT: My fuel and temp gauge works when I put in my original DX instrument cluster. When I installed the si cluster, it doesnt work at all.

if everything worked fine on your old cluster, everything should work with the si cluster, unless something is wrong with the si cluster.

make sure all the screws are on the back of the si cluster. If any of them are missing it could cause things to malfunction

nvm i figure out the problem. I swapped my Si Temp/Fuel gauge with my friend's EX Temp/Fuel gauge to test it out, and turns out that I need a new gauge! Well the Si temp/fuel gauge that is. Only 28 bucks from honda so ima just order it from there. Thanks for the help guys.
