Default Cluster Problems!!!!!

Alright So I ordered a bunch of blue LEDs from superbrightleds.com. I changed all my lights for the dash to blue. They look sweet but today when I took it for a drive I noticed to problems.

1-My speedo doesnt not work anymore

2-My O/D will flash on and off. It will stop if I restart the car but will them come on again.

WTF does you think is going on. should I just pull it out again and check everything or could it be something else. everything was fine before I did the switch !!

did you have to do any soldering to put those LED's in? Maybe you bridged something by accident.
