Alright, when i bought my car it had this gay Eurolite Dash kit thing, and it was just complete Rice.. so i took it out today and now i have couple of issues:

1) Speedometer only works if lights are completely on (doesnt work if just parking lights)
2) Tach only works if lights are on (parking or driving lights)
3) I cannot see the white "pointers" at night (if lights are on or off)
4) When i turn the key, only the Oil Light turns red (and your check engine, battery and oil usually do), but if i turn the car on with the lights on.. all 3 lights will turn on
5) I think my speedometer might not be registering the correct speed..


yah its alot how can i fix these problems??

thanks for the help

Its in a 1998 Honda Civic EX if that helps

 

any ideas???

 

I'm confused, I'm not sure what the "Eurolite Dash kit thing" is. Did you take off the gauge faces? or did you swap the whole cluster?

 

it was a blue gay *** face modification, but when i took them off, my stock cluster isnt working

 

How was it installed and how was it removed? Sounds like some wires may be crossed or touching something else. An APEXi RSM will solve the trick! J/K.

However, I would check all the connections to insure proper wiring connections.

 

just dropped it off at the shop... let u know what was wrong tomarrow

 

having the same problem....

 

sounds like some wires are shorting out on something...

 

i had a bad feeling its going to be the circuit board

lets pray its not

 

God, im trying to figure out whats wrong with mine. I doubt its the dimmer switch but who knows...

edit: seem like my instrument light is not reading the fuse...

What exactly is the circuit board? The ECU? Other than the ECU, it's just wires and connectors.

take out ur gauges and ull see it behind them


but the problem was:
1) Dimmer switch was dead
2) Missing OEM Circiut board (i only had the gay Eurolite one)
3) Fried some lights

Total: $260
- $120 for new gauges (old milage was 73,000 - now it says 43,520 )
- $140 for labor (4 hours of new wiring and such)

oh well, its fixed now
