MPH / revs dials reading incorrectly (I’m an idiot)

Postby Isupchap » Sun May 05, 2024 10:07 am

Hope I’m posting in the right section.

So my my issue is I took my clocks apart to change the standard green LEDs to blue ones (I’ve messed this up too and only half work now but that’s a different story)

When I’ve put the needles back on I’ve clearly fudged the MPH and rev counter ones and the readings are incorrect. Is there a way of me finding out where the needles should be if I take them off and put them back on again or is it just trial and error?

Hope that makes sense.

If you can assist but need more information just let me know
Thank you

follow this here ..but instead of turning a switch on and off, you will have the clocks hanging out and plugged in with the face off, you would be turning the ignition on and off..instead of using a switch, well that's how it looks to me .
