Default Xj6 series 6 dash replaced success dials stopped working

Hello everyone,
I need your help!

I decided to re-veneer the dashboard due for its cracking, before I started all the dials worked. The new dash was all done then connected up to the wires in the back of the dash and none worked not even the tachometer, I changed the wires over in the four instrument dials (not the speedo and tachometer because they are connected in only one way) and I managed to get the oil temp and engine temp working but nothing else. I have replaced all the fuses and still the battery amp and the fuel gauge don't work! If I swap Over the cable connected from the engine temp gauge to the fuel gauge the fuel gauge works but not the ending temp Helpp!!!! If anyone has any pictures of the right wiring set please let me know thank you ))

A good schematic might help. Click here and scroll to section 17.1

Don't forget to attach the ground wires to the tabs on the metal backing next to the speedo and tach.

Cheers

Default check the multi pin connector

There are two multi pin harness conectors for the guages wiring. They are usualy white or black. Make one of them didnt pull apart.
