greddy boost gauge destroyed by me - help needed!

Post by demonslayer »

Hey guys,



long story short everyone, I really fu***ed it up this time.


Today my 52mm Greddy boost gauge light went out (Black face,red needle,red light, PSI)

After googling, and checking forums + calling up a friend who did all that on his gauges..it was clear that I had to remove as black round "sticker" on the backside to access the bulb, so one would think........


It's hard to even see something through that hole on the rear, but it seemed like a bulb, I tried to turn it with a flathead screwdriver and pry it out somehow.

Suddenly I snapped something of the circuit board. It turned out this freaking thing was not a bulb, but what I would think of - some kind of Potentiometer to adjust the needle.

Now I really messed it up and have to open this thing.


Does someone know how I can disassemble that beast? Cut it open on the rear, or trying to pry off the bezel somehow?


This on my show n shine car. I am so sad!
