Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior problem with reverse indiglo gauges

ok i have a set of a/c autotechnic reverse indiglo s7 3d gauges. me and my friend installed it ourselves.

we connected everything correctly. we connected the power to the parking light and the ground to the cigarette lighter. and we checked all the connections and they're right. we followed everything exactly from the install guide from e-celica.com.

the problem is that it doesn't light up. any reasons why it wouldn't do so?

test them from the battery

does the gauge make ur odo meter back to 0?

check connections with a multimeter.

well, it's actually working. at first i thought it was some rip-off that i got off ebay but everything is ok now.

i installed the gauges this afternoon into evening. but then it wasn't working. thats when i decided to leave a post up in here in the forum about my little problem. unfortunately for me, i had to go out tonight and i had no other choice but to take my car out. it made me feel so different driving without the lights in my gauges working, except for the needles. i was in my friend's house and when i alarmed my car, the lights from my gauges blinked. i was wtf?! but when i drove again, it didn't work until i hit a few bumps and then it turned back off. so while i was at a stop on a streetlight, i played with the wires and it seems to me that the power connection is loose. so tomorrow, i plan on fixing the problem tomorrow.

when i think about it, this was such a stupid problem.
