3 Gauge Cluster Lighting

[Normsta]

Hey all

I recently took off my 3 gauge cluster while I was working on my Air Con unit in my R34 GTT, and when I put everything back together, none of the lights caome on in the cluster. After a while, the middle one (oil pressure) came alight, then after another while the battery one came on as well. However since then, the light behind the boost gauge has never come online again. Any idea why this might be happening?

Cheers.

Did the light bulb somehow became loose? Maybe make sure all the bulbs are screwed on?

Slightly off topic...

My Boost Gauge doesn't work, The reading just sits at the bottom of the dial and never moves! Anyone else experience anything like this?

sounds like there's a leak in the vaccum hose or it may have come off altogether at either end, fairly common problem just look along the hose that connects to the guage.

If there's pressure in the hose but leaking somewhere the needle *should* still move around a bit.

When I had my Gtt there was a leak in the hose near where the hose connects to the firewall

Checked them, still no luck.

Could also be a broken boost sensor (top-left corner in your bay), you can try and solder it up on the inside electronics. Plenty of topics on SAU for that one.

Is the bulb blown? lol

I have a similar prob with my volts gauge, it's currently really dull. Have fiddled around with it but no luck...

My boost gauge was really temperatmental when I got my car, would work for a little bit after starting the car then stop. I pulled the sender apart and sprayed it with contact spray, worked perfectly since.
