sounds like you have a short. i have to tell ya when i bought a pair of aftermarket taillights the bulb harness was wired wrong and the brake light would always be on then when i'd push the brake all my dash lights would go out. sounds like a short to me

soundsl ike an engine ground, it really soundslike your car's ignition is turning off for a second, that's waht creates the bog & the seatbelt light on startup, it just might not be fast enough to start the whole diagnostic, it would also explain the guage dropping to 0..

It really soundsl ike a ground, an important one....which I don't know

Sorry

How did you solve it? By re-doing your grounds connections?

I was about to say it sounds very much like a problem I was having... but you seemed to have fixed it so I'll keep my mouth shut.
