Help please gauge problems!!

Ive used the search but had no sucess. The problem is i recently put Leds in the gauge cluster and now the Tach only goes up to 3.5K rpm. It just hangs there when i rev it up. Also the Temp guage doesnt work. Now all of these worked right before i removed the cluster. I made sure every thing was connected good and still no sucess.. Any ideas?? I also removed the individual gauges from the cluster at one point. But i replaced them the same as i took them out. Thanks for any advice the Tach dosent bother me its the Temp Guage that I NEED to fix Pronto!!!
Also its a 1991 camaro 3.1L

With the engine OFF, but the key in the RUN position, ground the sender wire, then look at the temp gage.

What does the gage do when that wire is grounded?


Happy Racing!
