Broken fuel and coolant temperature gauges

Post by J-Lo »

Hi there. My fuel and coolant temperature gauges keep cutting out. I'll be driving along and suddenly both these will drop to zero. Because they both happen at the same time I assume both the coolant temperature and fuel levels are fine, and when I turn the engine off and on again the needles usually go back up. So it seems the problem is to do with just the electrics on the dashboard itself.

And recommendations on how to remedy would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
