Question!! Whats the best way to test my Gauges • The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Hello all: I have a 70 RT/SE with the car dissembled and the gauges out.... I would like to test my gauges to see what works and what doesnt.
I do know I would like to put new faces on two of the gauges......but a little hesitant to just send off to a gauge repair place in fear they would say everything is not working and I need total rebuild on all gauges....
Anyone have any recommendation?? Tks.......

best way to check to see if it responds to voltage and not to BURN them out is to use a 9 volt battery and two alligator clips to the guage- if it moves with the battery and clips on- it works- but this can't tell you if they are accurate!!!
