My Front Desk Meters are going off and on - malfunctioning meters
Hi there,
Please need your help here. I got Honda Civic 2004 and am having problem with my meters. all the meters like speedo meter, gasoline, temperature and exelerator meters are going off and on. some times they remain off for number of days, and all of a sudden start functioning. What could be the problem. i had the car electrician to check the fuses they are all ok.
what need to be checked.
thanks.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Are any of the warning lights also affected?
How about illumination lighting?
(Looking for more clues here.)
When they don't work, try banging your fist on top of the dash over the gauges. (Like smacking the side of an old TV set when it doesn't work right.)
See if that has any effect.
I would probably start with making sure the connectors for the gauge cluster are fully plugged in.
Then, with the engine running so the gauges should be operational, wiggle each connector while watching the gauges. See if that has any effect.
If both wiring connectors are plugged in and seated properly, it kinda sounds like the problem will be in the circuit board.
