Has anybody tried to fix their fuel gauge?

Has any body tried to fix their fuel gauge? On mine, the pin were the gauge indicator rests past the empty line came loose and is laying on the bottom of the gauge.

You can unplug it and the temp gauge, then replace them with a USB charging sockets or similar, and by magic the fuel and temperature gauges show up on the digital display.

It's not worth fixing. Just unplug it and go digital.

I will look for a digital gauge then, thanks.

Just be sure to unplug both the analog fuel gauge and the temperature gauge so that the digital ones show up. Unplugging only one will not do it.

Like it was stated above, just disconnect the fuel and heat gauges and the digital gauges will appear on the console (like magic).

You will be pleasantly surprised at how accurate the digital fuel gauge is compared to the analog gauge.

I have..!!

Not a Spyder gauge but the same kind. It is a lot of work and really not worth it. This is a throw away world. If you want to keep it you may find one at the auto parts much cheaper that oem. Also check warranty or any posts for a lot have replaced them for others...

Dealership disconnected both of my gauges before I bought mine and like others have said above, pretty accurate. Never seen the regular gauges work. Eventually mine will be replaced with a boost and AFR gauges when I go with the turbo kit. But that's a ways down the road.

Anybody got pix of the digital gauges?

RSS?

Does this "magic" digital gauge (unplug the analog and the digital will come on) apply to the RSS? :dontknow:

From what I have read, I do believe so.

Give me an hour and I will post a pic to this thread.

No, because the gauges on the RS-S are digital already!:banghead:

IF you want it; I've got a fuel gauge here on my garage shelf that's ready to be sent out...
It's got black bezels though; I replaced it with one that had chrome...

If one was looking to replace the fuel and temp gauges with aftermarket volt and oil pressure gauges, are these standard 2 1/8" round gauges? Is there a convenient location to connect a mechanical oil pressure gauge?
