I put type s gauges in my 99 and the fuel and temp gauges dont work but the fuel light and other lights work. Does anybody else have the same problem?

 

I doubt it will work since both cars are different. The wiring on the clusters are different.

You can try swapping the gauges individually and putting them on your old cluster.

The same thing happenned on my old integra while putting in Type R gauge cluster. Did the same exact thing you mentioned.
Once I swapped the type R gauges to my old cluster, everything worked just fine.

Good Luck

 

what do you mean by they don't work? I am assuming that you are talking about the gauge overlays not the entire gauge cluster assembly. If they are inaccurate you can adjust the needles to match Full=full and cold=cold.

 

i read it in the forum or a magazine long ago that if you buy the type s gauges from the dealership that it'll plug right into the stock ones. That's what i did, but for some reason just the temp and gas gauge doesnt work. But where can you get the indiglo gauges for the TLs??

 

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I am interested in putting in Type-S gauges in my '99 TL. I know the 4-spd vs. 5-spd transmission issue, but are there any other issues/facts I should know about from those who have tried it? Will it work, and if so, how? Would I need the entire Type-S cluster, or can I swap the three gauges on the existing '99 cluster?
Thanks in advance!

 

you can get the gauge faces and put them on. as far as i know the tcs light doesnt match the same spot and just the 4speed/5 speed difference

 

YOU CAN FIND THE 8 COLOR GLOW GAUGES ON WWW.PROCARPARTS.COM OR ON THEIR EBAY AUCTIONS.... THEY FIT GOOD AND ARE EASY TO INSTALL... I PUT THEM ON MY CAR LAST WEEK.....

 

would the type s white faces be a direct fit in my 2002 tl-p, and is it easy to install? thanx guys!

 

i know some people that put the indiglow gauges on the '99, and to solve the 4 speed/5 speed problem, they just cut the dividers on the gauge, but the type-s gauges are MAD $$$, like $300 i think it was when i checked...

 

Tatewaki did it on his 99 TL.

 

hey guys, where can i get plain white gauges for my 02 tl-p, and where can i get a alum/chrome gauge bezel type deal?

 

I just called my dealer (Acura of Boston) and asked how much the Type-S gauges sell for brand new. The whole set of three costs just a little over $100. This is for just the three individual gauges (no cluster). I think this little mod might be worth my time and money.

 

yea i wouldng change the whole gauge i would only change the faces!

 

Installing the indiglo faces is not too hard, just make sure the needles don't stick! IMO it's a good mod for all TL-P

 

So as far as I can see, no one has ever put actual Type-S gauges in their '99. Is this the case?

 

pretty much...
