Here is a video of the problem: MVI 1675 2 - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhZiMGYYmQc)
Once I turn the key the gauge goes into this mode and stays in it. I tried hitting the reset button, but it does not fix it. Any ideas of how I could get out of this mode?

This is how I wired the gauge- two pin plug in the centre of the rear of the gauge

connect red wire coming from gauge to the white wire from boost sensor
connect black wire from gauge to black wire from boost sensor
red wire from boost sensor to 12v+

then the four pin plugs, you only need to use one of these , (can use either one)

red wire 12v+
black wire negative/ground
yellow or white 12v+ one is for white and other is red backlight , you can wire it so when you switch headlights on at night the gauges will turn red.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like a shitty taiwanese knock off, you'd probably get better results when you spend more thatn $40.
