95 Accord, Intermittant Gauges

The fuel gauge and now the temp gauge on my 95 Accord have become intermittant. The guages drop to zero periodically. Prior to this developing fuel gauge would only read from 3/4 full to 1/4 full. Car has 215,000 mi. Thanks.

This sounds like a bad ground but first check the fuse for the instruments located in the fuse box. If that is OK, somone will have to find the ground wire for the instruments and see if it has any voltage with the key on. If it does, the gound connection is bad

God Luck

if i remember correctly there is a resister in the dash board that will need replacing, this is on the power side for both the gauges. . it will need replacing. i think a company in the 90's did a upgrade for the dash board so if its the upgrade it will be on a board. the original was on the back strip. you just cut it out and solder new one in its place to the parts left, but don't solder for to long as it can ment the strip.

Guages not working,

If all voltages checked ok,then most probably its faulty instrument cluster board on which gauges are connected.Yes if cluster circuit board looks ok,then also it can be faulty.Somewhere there is minute short or burn on board then such prolem arises.
Also check the fuse box.One under hood and other under dash.Inspect each and every fuse and see if all are fine or not.

No guages working

If all voltages checked ok, then most probably its faulty instrument cluster board on which gauges are connected. Yes if cluster circuit board looks ok, then also it can be faulty. Somewhere there is minute short or burn on board then such problem arises.


Also check the fuse box. One under hood and other under dash.

Inspect each and every fuse and see if all are fine or not.

1991 honda accord starts intermittently. When it doesn't the gas guage goes below E. Gets spark, no fuel. Already changed main relay.

Hey man if you already changed out the relay i would try changing your fuel pump and sending unit that should stop both of your problems.

Gauges come back on....

electrical problem. take the truck to the dealer and have the computer checked / reprogrammed. unfortunately, your average mechanic cannot reprogram the computer. have you noticed any other problem that would point in the direction of an electrical problem (lights, radio, lighter, etc.)?
