[QUOTE="blert, post: 1041584, member: 64702"] This may not be of much help but... T'was me, if I truly believed that cold/wet weather made a difference, I would start by grabbing a few cans of electrical contact cleaner and few tubes of dielectric grease. Then start cleaning up every electrical connector I could find and applying the dielectric grease to the connector before plugging back in. Moisture can be a bitch to an electrical system. I used to have to do this yearly to my old '78 280Z as the rubber bits in the connectors of the old girl were pretty gone. Unfortunately, this may not help you at all and you are probably looking at a new instrument cluster as others have stated. [/QUOTE]
