Instrument cluster intermittantly will go dead sometimes just tach and speedo. other times all three. It will usually
come back by hitting the dash. Altough the tach hasn't been working in a while

martin; Hitting the dash works pretty well, usually. Unsure Or, you could pull the instrument cluster and look for a poor connection. Check the connector that 'plugs' into the cluster. You can run an artificial ground to it, also, to see if that is the problem.

ShockedThanks Loren
That was my next move. But I wanted to try to get a feel for how the gauges and dials work. The Tach isn't working but the speedo is functional (altough it occasionaly needs a whack on the dash). My wife said she has seen the Fuel and Temp gauges not work. So I take it the speedo and tach are electronic.
Thanks in Advance
Jim
