    TRD S/C 3" sky jacker suspension lift,33" kumho road venture mt kl71's 16" 320c pacer wheels,billet grill,EBC slotted and dimpled rotors,super 44 muffler with gutted cat,smoked l.e.d. tail lights, deck plate mod with K&N filter,fog/blinker mod,cobra cb with 4' firestick antenna/100W PA,clear corners with l.e.d bulbs,55w back up lights,urd O2 sim., blue l.e.d bulbs behind gauge cluster.
    today i went to put new l.e.d bulb's in my gauge cluster and when i put everything back together and drove the truck down the road i noticed my mph tach. wasn't moving but everything else works. Im not sure what would have caused it. If the gauge cluster is f.u.b.a.r what are my options? and it looks like the odometer can be removed from the cluster? if so can i pull it and put it in a new gauge cluster?:confused:

    Bump because I feel bad...sorry man, i have no idea...but im sure someone in TW can help.

    Are you sure you pluged everything back in correctly? Didn't burn any of the circuitry on the board? Maybe take it all back out/apart (i know that sucks) and double check everything. Sorry dude...

    That happened to me, i had to take the cluster out and take off the needles and just sorta reattach them and turn them around once then b4 i put everything back i plugged them in and took a quick drive to make sure they worked. I didnt even touch the needles but i guess that happens sometimes if you take the cluster out.

    well i played with it earlier an checked every thing and still nothing but i took it down the road earlier and i had to be doing like 50 or 60MPR and the tach. went up to 20MPH :( so it seems like the calibration is off? but the tach. is still working just way off on the speed. so my question is now how would i fix it?
    But on the bright side of things the blue l.e.d.'s look sweet:D

    take the needle off and put it back on, just make sure when you put it back on the bottom of the needle is not touching the background. that is why it is not moving . When is touches the slightest bit it deactivates

    not yet but the ones i got have like 9 l.e.d.'s on each bulb so they are super bright and the color is even so no bright spots on the cluster face.
