On the replacement dash , the trip computer will only work if it was on fitted to the original car. As not all cars had them.
You need to check that all the power and earth feeds to the dash are all working.
Also note on the fuel gauge weather it says 15 or full .
They both need to be the same. One is a can bus dash the other normal. Also try to get one off the same type of engine if you can.
