Hey guys.

just bought a dc2r cluster for my dc4. before i connected it, i pushed the fuel needle to about half way (which was what i had on my old cluster before i changed it). when i turned the car on, the fuel needle rose and then dropped down below the E and has been sitting there since.

From reading around, ive found that usually, if you disconnect your cluster and re-connect it, whether or not the fuel needle has moved, it will re-adjust it self to the right spot. So i tested this by putting my old cluster in and it worked. my old cluster fuel needle moved to full after i filled up but the dc2r cluster still reads below E.

Anyone have this issue? How can i fix this issue? suggestions?

i dont think the dc2r cluster is broken because the fuel needle rose when i first put it in and i saw it move a tiny bit today when i turned the car on (5mm)... (but then just sunk back below E :()

thanks
