Someone suggested taking the gauge apart and putting a tiny machine screw through the hole where the pin goes - if you still have the pin.

And soldering it after the screw is in place.

I remember seeing the pin... now if i remember correctly i may have left in harness. will try the machine screw and solder first.

Its strange have two of these guages and both have same pin broken.
