I have been having some strange things happen on my 86 245 since it got cold. First, the shift light no longer works. Then the Temperature gauge stopped moving up to the warm side. Now, at medium acceleration I get a flickering oil pressure light.

I almost think these problems could all be down to the dash wiring harness, but I'm not sure. The temp gauge does seem to move a little, but it's not accurate. What else could it be? My oil looks good, and I don't see any problems with the coolant or radiator... My heater is thankfully the usual Volvo Hot.
