Hey guys,
I bought some BEAMS gauges a while back to put in my celica to take advantage of the tach signal from the ECU (i'm running engine management and no distributor). I heard these were a direct swap, but my fuel gauge isn't working when I put them in. I waited a couple minutes and the gauge didn't climb with the ignition switch turned. Can someone verify that these gauges work in this car?

I repinned the connectors, got the full gauges wired in. Battery indicator light doesn't work, but the battery still charges (the bulb is part of the charging circuit). Everything else seems ok except the car doesn't make the dinging noise when the key is turned to "on", only when the key is in the ignition and not turned. Don't know if the, temp gauge, oil pressure light, or CEL work or night since I haven't had those circuits connected in years. Tach, speedo, gas, turn signals, illumination, cruise light, etc all work! Direct swap!!! Now I wanna see if I can change out the resistor behind the speedo to put the white km/h gauge in mph smile.gif
