Guages and electronic 5th! 700 1988

posted by  someone claiming to be gimpin on  Wed Dec 25 14:17 CST 2002 [RELATED]

My guages have started actin funky, in the morning when I turn the lights on none of the guages work ecxept the turbo guage until it gets warmed up. The backlights don't come on either, the only lights that come on are my signals, the brights light and the 5th gear light. I also just noticed that the odometer isn't being accurate until warmed up, any ideas?


Which bring me to the 5th gear. I didn't know it wasn't working right when I bought the car cuz that was new to me, but after getting on here learned to overfill the trans and then it started working all the time until enough leaked out and it would quit, so I tightened every bolt on the trans and filled it up after it quit once and now it doesn't work after it gets warm and if in fifth before warm it will kindof slide out when it gets warm. Any ideas?
