Good question.

I May not have grounded the cluster itself while I was testing it sitting on the seat of the truck last night.

I think I may have just hooked up the power and touched the sender to its post and that when the needle wad driven to E.

You got me thinking of this whole grounding issue.

Back in May when I bought this new gauge I had problems with the neddle sitting to high it would hit the bezel face

so I had to make a spacer and glue it to the bezel so the neddle would clear

Maybe that spacer is causing a grounding problem?
Maybe its keeping the gauge housing from grounding to the dash?

I made the spacer out of a gasket material

Dont worry about broken records. All advise is Greatly appriciated

Thanks
