While apart, I was very apprehensive about touching the components for their complex appearance.  So I would prefer to leave the tinkering to an expert...or just sell it (as-is) to some other adventurous soul.


 
I would start by contacting Z-Resto ( zresto.com/ ) and see if they work on electronic gauges.  It may be that they only do the mechanical gauges.

If they turn you away, I'd be curious to take a look at it and try to fix it.  When you swapped the guts, how did you crimp the ring that holds the case halves together.  Would it be pretty easy to open it up again?
