I jumped in my car today and to my surprise the needle on the boost gauge fell off and is just laying inside the glass of the guage. If I take this appart, will it just snap back on? It is an autometer procarbon ultralite gauge.

If not, does autometer carry a waranty?

thanks

I have never heard of that happening before hahaha.

Give autometer a call, I know people who have gotten their boost gauges replaced for free because the needle wasn't completely resting on 0 when off.

What your rest at zero. I got ripped off.

When did you purchase your gauge? Total is right just give them a call. It would not hurt unless you bought the gauge used.

Mine is slightly ahead of 0, it doesn't bother me so I haven't called them. I'm sure if it gets any worse, I will call them.

I doubt they will do anything but it is worth a shot. Otherwise just superglue it back on if you want. I would just spend the money and get a new one though.

In case anybody was wondering, I called them and they said that they would repair it for free. I sent it in about three days ago. I will let you all know what the end result is and how long it took to get back.

My boost gauge rests at zero.

But nice that you got yours repaired for free!

hey, just wanted to let you guys know that I recieved a package today from autometer and to my surprise they had sent me a brand new in box boost gauge. I mean it is brand new, with all the fittings and tubing that you would need to hook it up. Very quick turn arround time.
