Weird instrument cluster gauges
When I turn on my headlights my fuel gauge,heat, and oil pressure gauge all go higher then usual. what could be causing this?
Also when my headlights are on my turn signal arrows blink opposite of which way a turn them on.

Re: Weird instrument cluster gauges
when did any or all of this start? has it always blinked backwards? if so maybe someone switched the bulbs wires from one side to the other side. the gauge problem is a feedback of some sort. thats all i can think of right now.

Re: Weird instrument cluster gauges
May be a grounding issue.

Re: Weird instrument cluster gauges
I had similar issues when I was tracking down my electric problems and it turned out to be the ground. Could be corrosion???
