Check the voltage input. Some are 5 volt.

Sam,

since the gauges moved to the right, sounds like the polarity is correct. I would check to see if you have the correct sending units connected to the correct gauges. All gauges just measure current flow (ammmeters) correlated to a scale that represents another unit. (temp) The meters may have been damaged when the wrong strength signal from a sender was sent to the unit that could not handle the current being measured.

Good luck, keep us posted.

Regards,
