mines works fine after the motor is warm up.
it only idles on 0rpm when its cold....try checking the connections, make sure
none of the pins are loose from installation

I've had my needle been off before... it'll read like 1200-1500rpms when my AFC clearly shows it's 750rpms. Usually when I hit VTEC it will correct itself. Seems like the needle is sticky.

ive been told by many, that as our cars get older the rpms tend to go off track a little, either they fall behind, the motor dies out, or something happens. mine did that for a while, and would get stuck at 4k, then re align its self as soon as vtec kicked in. weird, as long as when you are driving the rpms are correct, you should be okay. DONT TRY AND PULL OF THE NEEDLE AND REALIGN IT...wont work i promise.
