Battery Voltage Gauge not working on main console, any ideas what to check

Stodge

I'd start with the connections on the back of the gauge and the ground to the helm.

I have a '94 fiesta vee and the volt meter doesn't work either.. if you fixed yours, please share what it took to get it working. Thanks

checked all connections and still not working, any idea of the part number for a new gauge ?

So it appears that GLS is selling what appears to be this gauge as part of a package.  The whole thing is $349.00.  However they list a part number for this gauge as GFC0106C.  A quick Google search turns up nothing however.  Maybe buy it and part the rest out?

Good luck!

I would send it to Faria and have them go over the entire gauge. It will be cheaper than a new gauge.

Cheers Guys, I live in the UK so not sure if we have an agent over here,

As a temporary measure, you can buy a battery voltmeter that just plugs into the cigar lighter type socket. Not expensive.

@taza ping them at https://fariabeede.com/forms/?form=contact and maybe they have someone they can refer you to

Did you check the contacts on the back of the gauge with a volt meter to see that something was going to the gauge?

All the gauge needles on mine come off the pin but I suspect only the oil pressure is even close to accurate.

Did you have any luck in the end with the volt gauge?
I live in Jersey in the Channel Islands and exactly the same has happened to my 276 Bowrider
