ok, so are you getting power? wha's the gauge doing? is it only lighting up? what's the meter doing? it's kinda hard to diagnose thru here........

i double checked the wiring and everything seems to be getting power...the gauge will light up when the headlights are switched on, but the needle doesn't move at all, it points just to the right of the 736mmHg mark

well, sound like you got everything hooked up correctly

i'm going to have to guess that you got a bad gauge, but like i said, it's kinda hard to make a good judgement call from the internet
