honestly, the easiest fix may be to get another one man. you're not supposed to mess with those things. Very sensitive, sounds like you may have it pushed on too far.

lol. btw, colored gauges? really?

How/why the hell did you do that?

Now you probably need a whole new cluster.

Whats/where is it getting stuck on though?

heh, my odometer stopped flipping (was stuck at the decimal (white box) when it rolled between 0 and 9. So I pulled off the screen, took a squirt of silicon based lubricant right at the roller LOL, and forced the dial to rotate using a pin, and its never got stuck again.

Your cluster might be salvageable, we just need to find what your needle is getting stuck on. Hopefully its not the actual guage internals that are messed up though or than its deffinitly time for a new (used) cluster.
