Gauges Going Crazy
I have a 2002 L-Series. The change oil light came on not two weeks ago
(not changed yet) but today while picking up my son I turned on the engine and the Security light, ABS, Service all came on and while driving home (5 minute drive) the fuel gauge and Temp gauge kept going down to Empty/Cold respectively then they'd bounce back up. While the gauges were down the care would studder and all panal lights would dim. We have been having issues with a rough idle while stopped in gear or not. Are these related? |

Gauges Going Crazy
I had a similar problem and somebody in this group (thank you to who ever
gave me the suggestion) told me to have the dealer check the server to the computer (BCM?), the dealer could not find anything wrong with the computer (no codes) every time I will take it. but I have to give them a signed permission to go ahead and change the server since they did not have an could not find an error code. Once they changed the server they had to reprogram it at a tune of about $400.00 + the car has been running better than when it was new. The car is a 2002 L300 with about 90K miles, and yes the engine ran rough, and the instrument panel will go crazy every now and then. Again sorry about not know the part name but it was the server/switch for the electronic part of the car. Good luck "Kimberly" > wrote in message ups.com... > I have a 2002 L-Series.
