I totally messed up my instrument cluster tachometer and fuel gauge while replacing a light bulb. When I manually move the needles there is absolutely no resistance compared to the speedometer and temperature gauge needles which still works.
I'm afraid to take the circuit board off in fear of I might mess up the working needles. Does anyone have any experience dealing with malfunctioning needles? Do I have to go to Ford repair shop? Replace instrument cluster?
At the meantime, the info display tells me "xx miles to empty" and I can listen to RPM. But I'd like to have all gauges in working conditions.
