    Angry Aurora Gauges

     



    Wondering if anyone has used these?

    Bought a full set of Aurora gauges for my project. Having issues with the Tacho. Face is 0-7000 RPM which is what I want, Instructions are for 0-10500 RPM!

    I have spent the last 3 days speaking to the supplier (Autoloc) who to be honest have proved to be completely useless. They have no idea!

    Oh and car isn't running yet so I cannot just try it in the car!

    Has anyone else used these gauges and found the resolution to this issue?

    I am about to take the whole lot back to the shop... but thought someone might know the answer

    Cheers

    Don't know that it would really matter the range of the tach, fairly sure the wire connections are going to be the same.....

    it shouldn't matter. the guts are the guts. if it shows 7K on the dial, thats what it is.

    The switches and wiring are common to keep costs down

    I hear this sort of thing all of the time...
    I can't understand how companies change things like that and not update the instructions. As for the gauge being off, its hard to find good stuff nowadays. We keep all of our sources here in the states. At least that way I can call and actually talk to someone, in English.
