Default Gauge Question?

Two actually. First, does anyone know what kind of signal the computer sends to the guages? Is it a signal that could be used by aftermarket gauges or is it just increasing voltage for increasing readings?

2nd: Can the factory gauges be repaired? In other words, can they be made acurate through recalibration or anything?

You can also recalibrate the gauges at local speed shop or dealer.
