I just have heard that a lot of the gauge troubles with the electronic dash is because the cluster has lost conection. You should be able to find out how to pull the cluster with an online search for instructions.

Anything make sense here? Sounds like high resistance, bad connections.. Find the connector from the computer to the dash, detach and kleen.. Doesn't take much a little moisture/oxidation will corrupt the connections.. Just my $0.02...
