Gauge issue Hi there, I was driving on the highway when the rev counter stopped working totally, After a while I reached a red light and stopped, when I started moving again the rev gauge was moving insanely from one place to another until it stooped at maximum rpm and stayed there until now, when I rev the engine to the limiter it hits 6.000 rpm then it’s back again to maximum.. HELP!

Hi Nadhem, I believe you have an electrical short circuit somewhere along the lines. Check them out and look for anything touching the body where the insulation has rubbed through. Regards John

Instument pannel keeps going out speedo rev counter fuel gauge

The cluster is really a computer module, so what needs is first make sure the signal for this gages are reaching the cluster if they are then the cluster needs repair, if not you may have a defective fuel level sensor and a problem with the vehicle speed sensor. Flip a coin, the sensor issues will be the most costly as the fuel tank must come out for replacement of the level sensor, that runs many hours of labor.
