heres my guess, they are wired to a common source for the lights...most likely sharing with the alarm. easy fix though, rewire them!!!
What kind of gauges are they??? my hks have extremely simple wiring...the black is a ground, red is a +v and the sender's connector. who did you have install them?

They are autometer gauges, oil and water. They came with the car when I got it, couldn't find a stock FD anyhow.
