Title: Hi all, another newby..............
Post by teaboyterry on Feb 10^th, 2008, 6:59pm

Great site, wasn't expecting to need help so soon, but.....Problem is fuel & temp guage needles go to half way on start up and stay there until engine is turned off. I have read previous problems and think the solder on the circuit board behind dash may be the problem.
My question is regarding the removal of the wooden dash board trim...Do i have to take out the climate control facia and all the other fixtures to get at the screws holding the trim in place? ( i am worried about damaging anything)
My car is 1996 2.0lt 16v Estate (high spec)
Any help would be gratefully recieved.

Terry
