Chrysler Imperial Body Problem

Electrical problem
1992 Chrysler Imperial 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 82444 miles

This problem concerns my dashboard gages... at times when I'm driving, the speedometer (digital) goes blank and/or shows half a number and so on... Is this a problem with the fuse, loose wire, or something else?

Hi:
This could be a few things. It could be the gauge itself, a speed sensor, or a body control module. The problem is you need to have the proper test equipment to test the BCM. I would start by having the computer scanned to see if there are any stored codes. Most parts stores will do it for free.

Let me know what you find.
