gauge problem again!!! help

Ok me again... It seems I have some bad luck when it comes to modding.

I tried doing the LED needle mod and it worked, but I notice that my gauge meters didnt work at first. Then after I rode over a bump they would work. So I opened the custer back up to see if something was loose and then plugged everything back in and now the metters dont work. The lights and indicators work fine but the needles dont move. Also the odo background display lights up but the there is no letters or numbers.

I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a seperate fuse for the metters or if anyone knows wht might be the problem.

the tach sense wire should still read fine, it's just the gauges that are fcuked up. the tach only displays the signal that is sent to it. that gauge not working shouldn't have anything to do with your remote start at all...

do I have to change the whole cluster or can I just change the speedometer, since it seems that the other gauges lead off from that.
