Info needed on clocks!

[L900CMC]

Jus took my clocks out cus a few bulbs are blown and the needles for the temp and fuel are sitin weird and i dnt wana set them in the wrong position,is their any way of resetin the clocks?

 

[L900CMC]

Anyone?wana get it done before darkness comes?

I've attached a pic of a disconnected dash cluster Chris.

With the ignition off the rev counter, speedo and temp gauge will sit in those positions. The fuel gauge is anybody's guess.

Use a fork to lever the needles off gently and reset them best you can.

Just thinking back to the EP82 fuel needle...if you push the needle down the mechanism should bottom out at zero. Set the needle to zero as well. Then when you restart the car it should readjust itself. Worth a shot yes?

Def jay il go have a go and let ya know

CHEERS

Done it there and it worked,i gained a quarter tank of petrol though,could it have been that wrong?

 

[Jay]

You'll know soon enough - best keep a tank of fuel in the boot till you test it.

Wot does the fuel light run off?Is it a module in the tank or wot?

[L900CMC]

Tried this jay but the needle doesnt bottom out jus keeps goin,and the fuel gauge always shows how much fuel you have so wen i turn the ignition on it doest readjust,im baffled there must be a way

 

[Jay]

Then it's a game of trial and error mate, unless some kind soul can answer the above questions for you.

 

[L900CMC]

Bugger,didnt even need the needles off in the first place!As the sayin goes ya learn from your mistakes!!!!

My needle sits bang on the top mark when full.

Think the light comes on just below the quarter mark.
