I suppose I could put the warning to the far right so that it can be angled.
I'm actually thinking of replacing my Prosports, so angling might have to wait till they are replaced...if I go with a different brand. Of my 3 gauges only my oil temp gauge is working. My water temp gauge and premium oil pressure gauge do not read from the senders. They illuminate fine but do not register any readings.
My water temp gauge was working at one time and now during opening ceremony it pegs at around 160 and never goes lower...even during opening ceremony. The water temp sender works fine. If I plug my oil temp gauge into the water temp sensor it reads just fine. The oil pressure gauge I bought new from a forum member. It was new when I got it. It illuminates fine, but never reads anything but zero. The oil pressure could be my bad on wiring, but I've double checked it and everything seems correct.
I may get some STRI or AEM rather than replace the Prosports with more Prosports.

Thanks! Those are the only pictures I took before installing it back in the center console, so the additional side views may have to wait. These are the basic Prosport "Performance series", oil pressure, water & oil temp gauges that don't have the peak/hold warning features. If your gauges are significantly deeper, the bracket sides behind the panel will limit how much you can angle them. The good thing is that it doesn't take much of an angle to make them readable - presuming you don't sit too close to the wheel.
Sounds like your water temp gauge may have a fried stepper movement since you tested both the wiring & sender by substituting in the oil temp gauge. I'd check w/Prosport to see if they will cover it. The OP gauge sounds like either a wiring issue or a bad sender.
