Most electrical problems are caused by bad earth wire connections. Title: Re: elec Post by: FCRB26 on October 20, 2013, 06:29:00 AM Ive had similar issues so i did what stinky is saying i ran a earth wire from the instrument cluster to the nut that holds the steering column up.
or clean the 2 tangs on the dash that locate the dash facia also the tabs on the fuel and idiot lights earth to the facia so where the screws go thru need to be clean as well. Title: Re: elec Post by: colt on October 20, 2013, 04:44:09 PM Sounds to me like a problem behind the dash, as the others have indicated. Make sure all your dash wiring is in the right spots, I too have a separate earth from the dash carrier to the body as well as the indicator tell tales.
