Car Forum / Honda Cars / December 200594 accord with messed up tach. and fuel gauge
a friend of mine has a 97 accord v6 with the reverse glow gauges, which he installed himself. he told me that he could put them on for me a while back on my 94 accord. ive had the problem for a while but never really cared about it, but now that i know there are some people in a forum that know what they are talkin about, ill give it a shot. the tach. only works every once in a while if i hit the top of the dash repeatedly. and the fuel gauge only moves up a little ways past empty. i would say it moves up about 1/4 the way to the 1/4 tank mark. :-/ oh yeah, and the A/C and the air recirculation lights dont work unless i tap on them...any ideas anyone? thanks In article <f4e7815e9e7cc43aa782ad979f623053 @localhost.talkaboutautos.com>, ballinjefe22@yahoo.com says... > a friend of mine has a 97 accord v6 with the reverse glow gauges, which he > installed himself. he told me that he could put them on for me a while [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > the air recirculation lights dont work unless i tap on them...any ideas > anyone? thanks Why don't you ask your friend? --Gene well i did...and he said he did it all the same as when he did his, so i really dont know wha tto do. and i dont wanna drop the $ to buy a new gauge cluster. It could be that connections are loose or need to be cleaned. Your wording is a little confusing, you do mean that this issue is occurring on your OEM gauges correct? Try opening the cluster and get some pressurized air to clean out the contacts. If this fixes your tach issue but doesn't fix your fuel gauge, you may need a new fuel sending unit. They typically start going bad from 7-8 years onward so you may be due for a new one.
