I read the replies to my previous post, but no one was able to tell me what
the name of the button was that I pushed and what it's purpose is. Could
someone give me some help on that. By the way, I didn't reset the
tripometer while I was driving, when I pushed the button next to the
tripometer, that was when everything quit working, such as the speedometer
and the odometer. Thanks again for your guys help.

Tracy,
Sorry, I can't help you with that - I don't own a 90. You could either
contact Robert Bentley (www.rb.com) and get an owner's manual or even
contact Huw Powell (at www.humanspeakers.com/audi) and ask him - he's a
super-helpful guy. On my 5ktq, there's the trip odometer reset button, and
what looks like a button which is actually a cover for the screw that
adjusts the fuel gauge (you pull on it and you can see the screw head in the
cluster). If you pressed hard enough on a cover for an adjustment screw,
that may be responsible for breaking something in the instrument cluster.
Cheers!
