Wonky gauges?
So this morning my three gauges on the right crapped out kinda. My temp bottomed out, oil pressure spiked, and the boost lost it'* reference, read several pounds low, and moved really twitchy. They came back to life momentarily a few times. Voltage is normal according to the gauge I've got plugged into the cig lighter.
Is this the common corroded harness? It'* never happened to me before.

Any other possibilities? I opened up the buss connector. It was spotless, clean as a whistle. I slathered it with some bulb grease anyway and tried the gauges. They all stayed bottomed out (the car wasn't running). The oil had been maxing out, and the boost gauge should have settled at zero, but stayed at -10.

IIRC wasn't there someone that found a ground up behind the E Brake? Although having taken a couple of the cars apart...I've yet to see such a ground.
