Guages Acting Weird...

alero440 · 06-02-2006, 01:38 PM

So ever since I got my car back from the body shop it turns over really slow and every once in a while when I start it (3 times so far in a month) my speedo and tach go completely to the other side, then back to the off position then up to where it should be at idle. This resets my trip, change oil and tire pressure. I know it has something to do with the PCM resetting itself... But why? Help is needed here so when I take the car in on Monday I don't sound like an idiot...

PS they had to do something with the dash when it was getting fixed....

A plug? Behind the dash? See I didn't do this to my car, its been like this since I got it back... its frustrating

ya, if u take off that black plastic bezel around the gauges, you should be able to actually see the plug. it's on the upper right corner of the gauges.
