I have had the same old problem that everyone else has had with the dash lights going out for the past two years (will be fixing after reading forum), but now the speedometer is about 40+mph above whatever I am driving. If I am doing 50mph it it telling me that I am doing 90 etc. Also the fuel gauge is reading way above "F" once the key is turned to the last position prior to starting. If the key is in accessory the fuel gauge reads 1/2 tank. " When I disconnected the fuel sending unit the needle would go from way above "F" to 1/2 tank. Would this be another result of the solder joints going bad? I have read that a bad relay for the rear window defroster can cause faulty readings on the instrument panel and didn't know if anyone else has had this problem. Thanks for the help.
