a few issues...need a fix...

1. my temperature gauge has never worked before...seems to be stuck...

2. my P R N D4 D3 2 1 does not light up when i turn on my lights...never has...tell me it ain't so or tell me which fuse to check if it is that...

3. my passenger seat does not heat up at all...what gives?

4. when i'm cruising downhill and it downshifts, its quite jerky...is this an early sign of transmission probs? i know our cars aren't great in the low gears...tends to get "confused" as to which gear to be in or when to shift up.

5. i have new tires but driver side front tire has always seemed more deflated compared to my other tires...is it because that side is the heaviest?

6. i have the silver reverse glow gauges in my car (they look sweet btw)...problem is the needle is a lil hard to see...does anyone know of any lighted needle replacements and where I can get them?

7. how many of these are noob issues? i've had my car for a mere 2 months and am still on the learning curve...bare with me lol

well did the tem gauge get broken when the rev gauges went on? if so it may be broken permanently

mine doesnt light up either im sure theres a bulb / connection thats broken of lose take it apart

make sure the switch is plugged in all the way

check the tire pressure

some people instllaed extra lights to illuminate the needle or paint it with that glowing paint

no the temp gauge has always not worked

and yea i don't really care much for the lights on my shifter...just wondering if its a known prob

the heated seat...is the wiring under the actual seat?

tire pressure is always the same...

hmm glowing paint...i'll look into that...

try replacing the bulb....in the shifter housing remove the arm rest and then you can get to remove the plastic wood center piece. refer to the head unit installation guide...
