Is the volt meter repairable?
Hi all,
I noticed the thread on the amp meter and figured I would give it a shot. Is the volt meter repairable? I know I'm getting voltage on mine. I could read it with my DMM. Analog meter always reads 9V. I can move it by hand but goes back to 9V |

Thank you sir. Yes. 12 V on the battery, 14.5 while running and VM reads 9v
I can physically move the needle on the VM and it goes back to 9V. just making sure the gauge is not seized or anything. Thank you in advance for all your help. I really appreciate it. |

Sounds like the resistor might be bad?

Another possibility could be that someone removed the needle (maybe to repaint it) and didn't position it correctly when they put it back on. They're just a press fit onto a tiny round shaft. |

No. it's not responding at all. points to 10 oclock no matter what I do. Guauge should go down to 12V when acc is on and 14V when running. Never moves.
