I've got the 5 bar Volvo oil pressure gauge that was working until this weekend. I put in a small clock that I got out of the junkyard, and moved the five bar gauge from the top hole where I wanted the clock, down to the one below it. It was a simple thing that only required me to disconnect the wires and put them back together. I've got the small clock in successfully, but when I put the oil pressure gauge back in now it doesn't work. When I turn the key on, the needle pegs all the way to the right before I even start the car. And then it stays there, even when I shut the engine off and take the key out. If I tap on the glass then the needle falls back down. Tapping on the gauge doesn't do anything while the car is running, it's always pegged.
I am 99% sure that I wired it exactly like it was. Any ideas?
