I have no idea what you just said other than "there are two big plugs on the new cluster and nowhere for me to put the others that I have."

What the expletive do you mean "and how long does it take for the fuel to go to normal again"?

pictures would be worth a thousand words on this topic. (and probably help to get your question answered.)

Don't know about the plugs but your fuel gauge should work like normal, it doesn't take time to reset if that is what you are asking.

the grammar could be better but you get the point. this is a TECH site. if you don't know what you are talking about then don't post and waste this guys time. why would you need pictures? the plugs are for your SRS and i believe the cruise control. the eg that the cluster came out of doesn't have those two features so there are no places for the plugs. leave em hangin. the gas gauge will be go back to normal once you fill it a couple times.

Wrong. A guage doesn't float for no reason and then just "go back to normal" unless you have a guage fixing fairy that I've never heard of. If the guage is floating, it's broken, if that's even what the OP is asking. On top of that, the only way you have to convey what you're asking on here is through text and pictures. Since there are no pictures, text is all he has, and when he can't get his point across, how is anyone supossed to help him?

^^^^retard. his question was quite straight forward if you've handled the situation in the past. the problem is that the only experience all of you here have had with a gauge cluster is installing some apc indiglo gauges. you don't qualify to answer the question asked, so don't post. now this guy thinks he has a broken gas gauge which is far from the problem. the gauge basically operates in a circle of electricity that goes from the negative side of the battery to a resistor in the sending unit atop the gas tank. from there it goes to a heating coil wrapped around a bimetallic strip connected to the gas gauge. from there it goes to a voltage regulator ultimately reaching the positive side of the battery. when this circle of electricity is interrupted via removing the gauge cluster, it has to reset. but i don't know what i'm talking about so i'll shut up.

hey buddy:
your JDM cluster should have only 2 BIG PLUGS and... and you should have only one little Plug that is your SRS... JDM has no SRS you just leave it alone! and your Gas meter should work fine since is a Plug and Play thing !!

why i would need pics is b/c of this guys grammar is so bad, i would have an easier time walking into an arab gas station in afghanistan and speaking to them.

yesSIR-S you are a trial user please dont come in here acting like you know EVERYTHING.

The cluster you have, did not have cruise, and SRS as most don't.

Thats it.

everyone else understood it without needing pics. even the retard that said his gauge was broken and to call the gauge fixing fairy. are you the fairy who fixes the gauges? is that why you need a picture? you've obviuolsy never done this before rendering you USELESS in this thread.

i can hardly consider myself a "know it all" for understanding how a gas gauge works. it's more common sense than anything. i'm merely addresssing these posters' lack of common knowledge. if you're going to argue with me, please make sure your IQ exceeds your age. only then may you proceed.
