Thats probably what happend to mine because I hooked up the old on for like 1 week and i thought that it would eventually start working. Then the next weekend i switched it out and nothing worked. So pretty much all i have to do is replace the guage and it should start working.

I'm sure if you look at the gauge you can figure out how easily you can put the needle back on the spring so it'll work again. Taking the dash out isn't that hard, just don't rush when doing it...you might snap the black molding that goes above the gauges.

well i worked on it and i the oil pressure guage is getting stuck on 40 I took it off got it unstuck pluged the guages back in and i got stuck again so i will have to replace it, but now i have more problems the turn signals dont work and the speedometer it off of the actual mph im goin I guess i opened a can of worms ill work on it more 2morrow. when you put the guage panel how do you make it to where the MPH guage stays at O mph, when i put it in it fell all the way down to the bottom out spot like below O how do i kept it up to O as im putting the cluster back in.

Yeah looks like the gauge was damaged. As far as your speedometer I checked mine just now and yes it should be at the 0mph mark...but mine is a little bit above 0mph...reading 2mph about. That's with the car off. I'm not sure if it was messed up because of putting the cluster back in. There's one round slot that you have to fit it into and it's green colored. I believe that's for the odometer though...so if that's the case the gauge itself might be having some electrical problem. Did you by any chance unscrew a ground wire on the back of the cluster? Or did you by any chance physically touch the speedometer needle or flip the cluster upside down or all around? Doing so might damage its calibration. As far as your blinkers...the only time I experienced that problem was when I replaced the signal/light controller from the original 86.5 to a newer 89+ supra one. After I did that my signals wouldn't come on at all...so what I did first was check to see if the hazard switch would light them up. It did and after I checked that the signals worked again...very unusual.

In my case I live in a big dismantler city. It's quite easy to find a used Supra and get the gauges out of it. If it's hard to find one I could help you out.

alright i fixed the speedo i just took the needle off and moved it over to the 0 spot (pretty simple) but i still cant figure the turnsignals out my hazards still work but the turns dont not in or out of the car. An no blown fuses I dont know what i can do i guess just a process of elimination
