russj249 2 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Is there any proper way to fit the needles. Had my clocks apart tonight to fix my LCD backlight on the left screen.. but now I have to put the needles back on.. is it just a case of poke them as close to 0 as possible, but making sure that the little motors can go fully off the dials?Cheers in advance Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 if you turn the ignition on they re centre dont they? then you could put them back on at zero.You could test the speed with GPS, the revs with vagcom, the fuel gauge you could take the fuel pump cover off and move the sender through its range of motion (it also rests at zero when the ignition is off) and the temp you know that when its good and hot it will stay solid on 90 so could use a bit of trial and error with that (also rests at zero when ignition off) Link to post Share on other sites
russj249 2 Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 That's it then lol.. just didn't know if there was a test and calibration like you can do with the BMW's.. just a thought lol..I'll just poke them as close to zero as I can! Can check speed and rpm from the digital display for my launch control so that's not a problem. Just the fuel really!Might need to test the revs and speedo dials go fully round on the way to Wales next weekend! lol Link to post Share on other sites
