Gauge screwed?
i took out my gauge cluster so i could put on my indiglos and then when i put it all back together in the car it didn't work properly. The problem is that right before i turn the car over the needle on the speedo moves up to 60km/h. Why would this be and can i fix it?

Probably killed a fuse.
Move them back to where theyre supposed to be, find the fuse for the cluster and replace it if blown. Give that a shot |

is there anyway to fix this problem. i think this is why its not working. One of the bronze pieces that carry the main power throughout the gauges broke and their is a gap between it.

You can try some conductive paint (radio shack might have it), but there is no guarantee that will work.
