Default PLEASE HELP, EG6 problem...only one of my gauges works...ahhh!

OK, I have a big problem I need solved ASAP. I already searched and didn't find much of use. I have a '92 CX w/ a '93 d16z6 motor in it. Just finished the swap a few days ago, and it runs beautifully. HOWEVER, when I plug in the Si's gauge cluster, ONLY THE TACH WORKS! WTF? None of these work: speedometer, odometer, gas gauge, and coolant temp. PLEASE HELP! obviously these are major issues any ideas what may be wrong? everything plugged right in to the stock CX harness, so I dunno what could be wrong. The cluster works, because it worked in the donor car before pulling the motor from it.

Well, all the harnesses taht fit into the cluster are plugged in. Do you mean check the connections between the end of that harness and the rest of the car's harness?
