Hi. My temperature gauge tends to read hot, and smacking the top of the dash gets the needle to return away from the red. Although I KNOW this is diagnostic for an issue with the compenstion board, I will still sometimes smack the dash to reassure myself that the engine really is NOT overheating. My fuel gauge just stopped working, and I am wondering if, instead of this being a failing of the sending unit, it could in fact be damage done/something loosened behind the dash, the temperature gauge and fuel gauge being close neighbors. Any thoughts? -- 1992 240 wagon 123,000 orig. miles
