Hey klutch so i did my cluster gauge today and i turned on the lights and all the leds work but half of the speed odometer is dark what might be the problem?




I know the temp and fan speed i have to turn the bulb 180 degrees.

Picture? Half the speedo being dark makes me think not all of then are lit up...

Nice write up klutch. I'll probably change mine over to blue as well. Going for a black interior with blue accents. Open up the hood, black with red accents. Btw, you have the same exact head unit I have. That Pioneer's a beast. Best part is, it came with the car when I traded my Civic for it ;)

simple is better.
Did my climate control last night, did cool white(more blue but at least it matches my head unit). But the rod connecting the climate control slider to the thermostat, I could not get back on, it doesn't quite reach the rod. Any ideas to get it back on?

Here's my after pics:

2 things,
1.The blue tint happened to me too, turns out theres a thin coating on the inside of the buttons that surns it blue, you can get it off with nailpolish remover, but you have to be SUPER careful, because the black will come off too, but you can use a sharpie to fill in if it does.
2. try moving the slider all the way to the right (hot), it should give you a little more slack on the wire and you'd be able to hook it up, if not, try moving the pin underneath closest to the unit, if that doesnt work you may need to take it out again and re-route the wire.

Nice job on this write up klutch. I did this about a month ago and it looks awesome. Were your clips in the climate control rusted all to hell also? :lol:

Thanks I'll try that, I'm afraid to take it out and re-route it. It was a pain to pull out the climate control.
