Gauge Problems

[nwwheeler08]

So, on this yj. I got no tach and only the clock works. The fuel gauge kind of works but iffy. Im thinking of just pulling a dash, gauges and all and figuring it out from there but looking for some other ideas. Its an 88 with a injected I6 swap, ive never installed gauges before so it should be interesting. Would it be better to grab a newer yj dash since it has the ax 15 so the speedo would work. I know Wa-Wheeler and i are having some problems with that on his chero.

Thanks Guys

i would check all connection and especially grounds...

that is where i always start on when trying to figure out why a gauge doesn't work...

checking that stuff costs no $$, just some time... :;

yeah, cant wait to start. Probably going to pull the dash off and check all the connections on the back and follow wires. check all my grounds first. Gotta have a tach, volt, fuel, and hopefully speedo in by the end of oct for a family friend run to walker

Sounds like fun :fawkdancesmiley:

Oh and where are we doing all this work??

 

[nwwheeler08]

i honestly cant say i know yet. possibly keep it at jasons inside while the dash is getting torn and work on it at night? thats the most likely
