I just recently got a 1990 miata. Never owned one before. It was running strong when i got it. And everything worked fine. The dash had some cracks in it so decided to pull it off to resurface it. While i was at it i removed all the vents blower motor and climate controls because the ac was pulled out from previous owner. After reinstalling the dash the motor now sounds like its missing. Actually shaking the car side to side slightly. Also my cluster gauges are now longer moving. The lights work on the cluster but needles don't move at all. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
i should also mention the fuses are not blown. If im not mistaken the green clip under the dash goes to the gauges. Im getting power to the clip but not after it from what I've checked.. Started get late and was frustrated so i left it alone until i could get some insight on it and calmed down lol
thanks in advance
