scottlock40 0 Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Is there a secret to re-aligning the needles on the clocks? I had a problem and had to swap some bits around onto a doner cluster, but when I replaced the needles at zero and plugged them back in the car, as soon as I turn the ignition on they all drop back past the zero except the rev counter... Could anyone tell me if im doing somthing wrong?Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

scottlock40 0 Posted July 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Before putting the needles on properly, line them up just above the base line and gently press them onto their pins but only about a quarter way down (in case you need to make further adjusment) just till they grip, then push them with as little pressure as possible anti-clockwise until you feel resistance. If your still above the base line then you should still be able to push a little further until they line up, if their alredy pass the base line take them off and start again.Once they are lined up correctly press the needles down a bit firmer until they are about 3 quarters down - no need to go all the way...
