  • Hi guys,

    My rev counter is jumping around and my temp gauge and mpg is doing the same.

    Anyone come across this before ?

    Many thanks

As three individual faults with separate reasons, then yes, but as a whole with one single cause, then no.
If it's all related, then I'd be looking for at the power supplies to the cluster. Anything elsewhere in the car acting up?

yes there is now thinking about it. the indicators work fine sometimes but there other times where the front two indicators stop working and they flash very quickly.

do you think this is linked to a earth issue?
