I pulled out my guages and checked the connections. Im pretty sure its the wires brcause when i manipulate the wires attached to the connectors it turns off and on. It still seems like an electrical short.

It must be the pin connections because i checked the circuit board on the back of the guages and its fine. Will this be an expensive fix?

So far the fonz trick is the only thing that works. The male and female connection is tight. But if the wires on the back of the male connection get moved it will shut off.
