Gents:
Vis: 2003 Ford Focus hatchback 2.0L/std-trans.
After 6000 issue_free miles on my (used) 2003 Ford(~47000 miles), my primary dash_gauges [ temp/speed/rpm/fuel] have all pegged to zero.
Otherwise Focus functions above expectations - good performance, braking, all lights/radio etc working.
Dash_gauge failure occurred after transporting car inside a van for ~400 miles. Afterward, a gauge-recovery occurred for several days, but now again dash gauges pegged to zero.
GOOGLE search turned up this group with various similar reports. What should I try (if anything) before taking car to dealer/mechanic ??
Thanks for any clues.
