My car is a 2002 Civic Coupe, EX w/Side air bags, 5-speed.

Donor cluster is out of a 2004 Civic EX Sedan w/Side air bags, 5spd

Basically the exact cluster i needed...

It is in, and working thanks to this forum, and several AWESOME posts. De-pinning took... 10 minutes??? piece of cake. Thanks for the video!

Issue - On "key" (power to dash, key is ON) the gauges all take their place, lights check themselves, etc.

1 - The "Man't Req" light stays on.

2 - The Temp gauge rests at "5 o'clock" with the key off. On key "ON" it tweaks out, bounces between 5 o'clock and 6 o'clock.

All other gauges work correctly.

My code reader shows the car at normal temp.

Bad cluster???

I'm re-checking wires, but they all look correct.

So I pulled the cluster back out, and took the shield off the cluster. The temp needle seems to have spun all the way around clockwise. I spun it back around counter-clock wise, and it seems to be "working" but not in the correct place... I know my car doesnt run that hot...

How can i reset the temp needle? just pull off when it's cool, or "warmed up" and put it where it belongs?

Main req is still on...

good job, hahaha, you have any pics? I'm thinking of doing the same thing but can't seem to find a dash for a manual transmission, only automatics.
