Fluctuating Guages

Apr 13, 2005 2 Replies

Hi All,



I have a 1996 Grand Am. The speedometer and odometer in my car are fluctuating erractically. They raise and come back to their position with in a second. Initially all the lights on the dash board used to blink during the fluctuation and now the lights are ON and solid. Can anyone help me locate where the problem is. Thanks.


My 95 was doing the same thing. I removed the gage cluster and wiggled the clips that hold the flex cable to the cluster. After reinstalling it works good.

I have a 94 GP that does something similar when the turn signal is on. Does anyone think it may be a bad ground or connection somewhere? I changed the alternator at 113,000 miles thinking that maybe the regulator was bad.
