Have a problem with my 1996 2.6 v6,
It started out with me fitting a aftermarket dial kit, all went well and worked fine apart from i pushed the speedo needle on a bit to far and was catching; so after a month or so of putting up with it i decided to remove and refit, all exactly the same as first time round apart from when i plugged it back in the speedo was flickering back and forward a tiny amount (up to about 5mph and back down again) and the rev counter not moving at all.
So i set about stripping it down over and over again etc. checked the little spring the whole works.
The most annoying bit is that with this hot weather, if i drive the car for a little while they will spring back to life, or if the car is sat in the sun all day outside work, they will flicker 4-5times the first time ignition is on and then be fine, untill it cools down.
Anyone else had this???
