heres a pic



please help.. would be highly appreciated! thanks

 

you could risk damaging your temp gauge like this, you have it hooked to the wrong wire, it is getting too much power and thus could ruin this.

do not power the cluster anymore until you find the problem

to begin with, remove the lid until the cluster is wired correctly, second, take a picture of the wires that are hooking the fuel gauge up to we can tell you what you are doing wrong.

what year is your crx


tach is very simple solid blue and solid blue, there is only one solid blue wire, you cannot screw that one up!

looks like your fuel gauge is [freak]ed too

my crx is a 91.. the diagram i used it said the integra wire color for the temp gauge is the same as the wiring in the crx n the wire color is Yel/Grn.. and the 2 Blue Tach wires are wired up to eachother n the tach still doesnt work..

 

your problem could be with a power wire or a ground wire, or both.

your temp is probably lacking a ground and the tach is likely lacking a power or ground or both.

so check your power and grounds. add more if you see fit!

 

its pourin outside right now if it clears up ill go take a look.. im jus hoping i can get this problem fixed..

explain this please

 

Well until you hook up your electronic vss you're speedo isn't going to work, obviously. As they said the tach lead is a solid blue wire both on your stock cluster wiring, and the wiring on the integra cluster plugs. So.. not sure how that was screwed up. This is the pinout page i made while doing the swap into my car. Hopefully it'll help you. I did end up figuring out what the seatbelt reminder light was while changing my cluster, but i forgot to make note of it lol.

 

IM gonna try the wire diagram u gave me n see if it works..

 

Tach still not workin.. . n i disconnected the temp gauge..

please guy help me out!!

 

anyyone??? bumpp.. another thing i notice is that there 2 screws missing behind the cluster... on behind the tach n one behind the temp gauge.. could this be the probleeeemmm????

tach works dimmer works everything works. .. but the temp gauge still goes straight to hot.. so i disconnected it again.. now i wonder wut thgat could be

 

check your sensor. It may be bad if you have the wiring correct.

 

what was the problem with the tach?

i would say check the grounds for the temp gauge, not quite sure what the issue is with that one. make sure the temp gauge wire doesnt have any breaks anywhere and make sure its not touching any metal or any other wires.

good job so far though

Theres screws on the back of the tach.. the screws behind the tach was missing 1 and the temp gauge is missing 1 too.. im thinking thats the problem..

heres a night shot... temp gauge not connected yet.. let me noe wut u guys think so far..

 

is the fuel gauge broken too?

i would say yes that could very well be causing the temp not to work, its important that there be no missing screws. i just looked at my gsr cluster and it has no missing screws.

and why is your battery light on in that night shot?

 

prob cuz the car wasnt started thats why his bat light was on i duno but i want to do this to my 90 crx also looks hella tight

 

idk i need to find a certain screw for that gonna check the junkyard.. and the battery light is on cuz the batt is located in the trunk without a fuse... need to get one of those too..

 

Good info...

his RPMS are up to about 5K so it HAS to be running.
