Hi All

I have been having a problem with the fuel and temp gauge for a while, the temp gauge didn't work when I brought the car one day the needle moved all the way around and hit the bezel and has stayed there since, the temp shows up using multiscan correctly.

The fuel gauge does not return back to 0 if I fill the tank any more than just over half way, once filled past half way the gauge does not return at all then when I turn the ignition on again it goes even further around and continues until it his the bezel..

How ever the fuel gauge I can get to go back if I quickly turn on the ignition and off again a few times quickly....

I'm unsure what the problem could be?

Thanks in advance

These needles are both controlled by actuators (small motor on the back).

They can be replaced... but you need someone who knows what they're doing, ideally since you need the right part and/or it could be a different/general cluster fault, which Stilo's tend to suffer from.

It looks something like this.. although I have no idea if this is the part you would buy.

Thanks for your response, do you know anyone/anywhere I can find someone to have a look?

There's a Dutch fella on here called Yellowstilo. He's in Holland, so you'll have to post the cluster to him (not toooooo shocking.. but use some kind of tracking otherwise the Post Office will lose your clocks..).

He can replace any parts and fix any (or at least most) other issues that it might be instead. He's a lot cheaper than the usual "Instrument Cluster Repair" places you'll find if you search the internet. I've used him (as have a few others) and my clocks are still working lovely.

Send him a PM.
