Default Prosport problems

Hi all

I cant find the thread where i bought the gauge from, it was one of the group buys, anyhoo started having some snags with the gauge yesterday. First off the lighting has gone dim on the white setting on the 7 o clock position, i imagine one of the LEDs has gone duff. More importantly though today the needle stayed on 0 and did not move at all regardless of throttle position, had a quick check in the engine bay to check if any of the hoses might be split or detached to find that the tube from the filter to the gauge has collapsed? must be a vacuum somewhere? not sure, any help would be great

I had similar problems, those hoses they supply are pretty bad, I replaced mine with more high temperature ones and have no problems since.

well in my situation it was the hose, it just wasn't up for the amount of heat it has to put up with. Give it a try bud.
