My Interceptor broke! help!

So after installing my mechanical boost gauge. my interceptor appears very very hard to read..it seemd to "dim" itself..as in i cant visably see it durning the day..and night time is pretty bad..i've played with the "dimmer" setting but that doesnt help?

can anyone point me in the right direction?

Perhaps you tightened it too much to the pillar? If that doesn't help I guess a call to the manufacturer would be in your best interests.

For the TC version there is no need for tapping wires. Just a simple plug that hooks up to the obd2 port. So I doubt that would be the issue.

Mine does this as well. It is all due to the hot weather. Once it cools down it is fine again. I believe it is normal, although I don't like it.
