that happened to me too. i made a big mistake of not takin a pic before installing it. i called around and most of the stealerships wanted around $100 to diagnose it. but ur best chance is guessing where the needles were before u changed them out and correctin them when the car is idling. i did that and so far everything is good. also, if u took out the needles and were reinstallin them, u might have pushed them in too much, that would cause them not to work correct.

oh yea forgot to say this. if u have the right software on a laptop, u can connect it to the car and adjust the needles properly.

Easiest way is to start the car, let it fully warm up and then pull the needled and place them where they need to go. Ive had to do it before.
