Gauge cluster going crazy, what could it be?
Well I have a 94 dx and the gauge cluster I had was going nuts. Sometimes it would show the correct speed I was going and then it would jump all around. Well I bought an EX auto gauge cluster with a tach on it and it worked fine at first. Then it started to do the same thing. Did I just have two bad gauge clusters? Or is it something else? A speed sensor going bad? Wiring?

sounds like maybe there could be some loose, crossed, or exposed wire connections that might have worked them selves loose. But not sure.

that's what I was thinking because of how sparatic the needle is and the fact that it doesn't always do it, come to think of it it does it alot when I got over a bump, I'm betting that's what it is. It's making some kind of connection making the needle jump. That's my theory

its the VSS, clean it out problably corroded. I had an issue with it 2 weeks ago... it would make connection sometimes... and then sometimes just stay at 0 then kick in whenever it felt like.
clean it up and it should be good.
