MORE DASH PROBLEMS!!!

[gkaufman@tiac.net (gkaufman)]

I have the same comments for my 86 Coupe GT.  It's been most reliable but
the dash is a real hastle.  I have not changed the bulbs yet.  There seems
to be a mechanical intermittent problem with my dash.  For months the
technometer didn't work.  Then one day I hit a bump and since then, it works.  

Recently all three lights have been going on and off.  Here's my short-term
fix. I use my fist and bang on the top and side of the dash.  I've had no
problem for the last 2 weeks!  glenn
