  • 2nd gen hilux surf tilt/altimeter/inclinometer gauge

    Hi,
    anyone knows how to adjust the tilt/inclinometer gauge of my 1990 hilux surf?
    can't adjust the two gauge and it seems it was locked. is the lock lever located on the top of 2 gauges got a connection with this and how can i unlock it?
    Thanks very much....

                Hahahaha. Didn't need inclinometer to say that was so, so wrong. Built in, human common sense could for see that happening. Now where's my hammer.......

                  Sir Mark,
                  There was an adjuster on the front.
                  It was moving before and adjusted...but when my son touched the lock lever, it's stucked and can't adjusted anymore.

                        Any chance you could say how you fixed it? Just in case someone finds this thread. At least then there might be a conclusion

                        Glad yours is sorted

                          The problem with my tilt/inclinometer was locked.both of them doesn't moved.
                          I removed the gauges on the dash and open it up to know what's inside. I found out that it was locked causing the meters hold to it's position. Gently turn the locking mechanism counterclockwise to free the pendulum of the two gauges.
