Default indiglow guages in EG

I installed a set of APC indiglow guages in my EG last summer and they worked fine for the first few months and now they start to flicker and sometimes goes off completely. Does this happen to anyone else using these guages? I tried e-mailing the company but there not responding. Thanks for your help.

Did you wire the indiglos into the circuit for the original cluster lights? If so, try playing with the brightness control (the original one in the dash). If I move my brightness control, my gauges do the same thing. Sometimes they flicker, sometimes they just don't work. Play with it until you get the right setting, then leave it alone!

My friend had some in his Accord and they did the same thing, but go to find out it was the brightness control that went back. He got his hands on another one and replaced the old and it worked like a charm. That could be the problem. Hope this helps.

Could be that just your ground wire is loose. I sometimes have that problem.

The guages are not wired into the same circut as the factory. I checked the ground and all the connections. I disconnect the indiglo's dimmer switch and it's the same crap. I'll probably take them out for some JDM EG6 guages. Thanks for your help.

I the same problem with my reverse indiglo's. I checked my connections, and I'm getting a good power source (+12V). So I narrowed it down to my Indiglo module. Anyone know where I can those module's at?

Try calling the company that makes the guages. They should sell it or refer you to a distributer in your area.
