I've asked you guys this before, but a solution still eludes me, and a shop that has been fixing electrical gremlins for members of my family for years, its all they do. My gas gauge constantly reads full, and the float is not stuck. My temp gauge constantly reads all the way over to the right, even when the car has sat all night in the blistering cold driveway. My oil pressure gauge never moves. All the other B bodies I've driven have oil pressure gauges that move up and down with engine RPM's, mine is stationary, even if the engine is off and the ignition is in the on position. To top it off, the only idiot light that works is the fasten seatbelts light, the rest of them all never light up, even the ones that are supposed to when you start the car like the check engine ABS, airbag, the brake light that supposed to go when I set the parking brake. My cooling fans, both electric never shut off, I realize the secondary one only is supposed to come on if the engine is very hot or I have the A/C on, but they both turn on and never shut off. I start the engine, a few seconds later, the primary fan comes on, a few seconds after that, the secondary fan comes on. I can't figure it out. I also seem to have a disconnected rear defrost switch, nothing happens when I hit it, it doesn't light up, the window stays foggy and the mirrors stay icy.
If anybody has any insights on this at all, please let me know. I tried unhooking the fuel gauge sender too, to see if the gauge would move to empty, but it didn't, so I'm almost positive the problem lies somewhere in the dashboard.
